Colorimetry, the science of quantitvely describing color, is
essential for color reproduction technology. This is because it
creates standards by which to measure color, using mathematical
techniques and software to ensure fidelity across media, allow
accurate color mixing, and to develop color optimization.
This book is a comprehensive and thorough introduction to
colorimetry, taking the reader from basic concepts through to a
variety of industrial applications. Set out in clear,
easy-to-follow terminology, Ohta and Robertson explain fundamental
principles such as color specification, the CIE (International
Commission on Illumination) system, and color vision and appearance
models. They also cover the following topics:
* the optimization of color reproduction;
* uniform color spaces and color difference formulae, including
the CIEDE 2000 formula;
* applications of metamerism, chromatic adaptation, color
appearance and color rendering;
* mathematical formulae for calculating color mixing, maximising
luminous efficacy, and designing illuminants with specific
properties.
Colorimetry: Fundamentals and Applications is an ideal
reference for practising color engineers, color scientists and
imaging professionals working on color systems. It is also a
practical guide for senior undergraduate and graduate students who
want to acquire knowledge in the field.
Om författaren
Noboru Ohta earned his B.Sci., and Dr.Eng.from the
University of Tokyo. In 1968, he joined Fuji Photo Film and From
1973, he spend three y ears under Gunter Wyszecki at the National
Research Council of Canada.
He has taught colorimetry and color reproduction at a variety of
universities. he joined Rochester Institute of Technology in 1998,
and is associated there with the Munsell Color Science Laboratory
in the Center for Imaging Science.
He has published more than 100 technical paper sin Japanese and
English, and several books on colorimetry and color reproduction in
Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. He has been active in a variety of
academic societies, and also in standards organizations such as the
Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS), the American National
Standards Institute (ANSI), and the International Commission on
Illumination (CIE).
Alan Robertson earned his B.Sc and Ph.D. from the
University of London, where he studied under David Wright. He then
joined Gunter Wyszecki at the National Research Council of Canada
and Spent 35 years there before retiring in 2000. He has published
over 50 papers in journals and conference proceedings and has given
more than 60 invited talks in 10 countries. He is former President
of the international Color Association (AIC) and Vice President of
the International Commission on Illumination (CIE). In 2005, he
received the Godlove Award of the Inter-Society Color Council
(ISCC) for long-term contributions in the field of color.
