A Survey of Color for Computer Graphics Maureen C. Stone StoneSoup Consulting Course 4 SIGGRAPH 2001 August 12, 2001 A Survey of Color for Computer Graphics SIGGRAPH 2001 Description This course will survey color disciplines relevant to Computer Graphics ranging from color vision to color design. Participants should leave with a clear overview of the world of digital color, plus pointers to in-depth references on a wide range of color topics. For each topic, a brief overview and pointers to further informa- tion will be provided. For most topics, I will suggest a standard reference book or two, augmented by published articles as needed. The course should be of value both to those seeking an introduction to color in computer graphics and to those knowledgeable in some aspects of color who wish to get a broader view of the field.
