Chapter 6 COLOR and COLOR VISION
Chapter 6 – page 1 You need to learn the concepts and formulae highlighted in red. The rest of the text is for your intellectual enjoyment, but is not a requirement for homework or exams. Chapter 6 COLOR AND COLOR VISION COLOR White light is a mixture of lights of different wavelengths. If you break white light from the sun into its components, by using a prism or a diffraction grating, you see a sequence of colors that continuously vary from red to violet. The prism separates the different colors, because the index of refraction n is slightly different for each wavelength, that is, for each color. This phenomenon is called dispersion. When white light illuminates a prism, the colors of the spectrum are separated and refracted at the first as well as the second prism surface encountered. They are deflected towards the normal on the first refraction and away from the normal on the second. If the prism is made of crown glass, the index of refraction for violet rays n400nm= 1.59, while for red rays n700nm=1.58. From Snell’s law, the greater n, the more the rays are deflected, therefore violet rays are deflected more than red rays. The infinity of colors you see in the real spectrum (top panel above) are called spectral colors. The second panel is a simplified version of the spectrum, with abrupt and completely artificial separations between colors. As a figure of speech, however, we do identify quite a broad range of wavelengths as red, another as orange and so on.

Andrea Urland CONSERVATION OF ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE, OFARCHITECTURALHERITAGE, CONSERVATION Colour Specification andmeasurement HISTORIC STRUCTURESANDMATERIALS UNESCO ICCROM WHC VOLUME ARC 5 /99 LABORATCOROY HLANODBOUOKR The ICCROM ARC Laboratory Handbook is intended to assist professionals working in the field of conserva- tion of architectural heritage and historic structures. It has been prepared mainly for architects and engineers, but may also be relevant for conservator-restorers or archaeologists. It aims to: - offer an overview of each problem area combined with laboratory practicals and case studies; - describe some of the most widely used practices and illustrate the various approaches to the analysis of materials and their deterioration; - facilitate interdisciplinary teamwork among scientists and other professionals involved in the conservation process. The Handbook has evolved from lecture and laboratory handouts that have been developed for the ICCROM training programmes. It has been devised within the framework of the current courses, principally the International Refresher Course on Conservation of Architectural Heritage and Historic Structures (ARC). The general layout of each volume is as follows: introductory information, explanations of scientific termi- nology, the most common problems met, types of analysis, laboratory tests, case studies and bibliography. The concept behind the Handbook is modular and it has been purposely structured as a series of independent volumes to allow: - authors to periodically update the

The low output and lack of color options of LEDs limited the technology to these uses for some time. New LED materials and improved production processes have produced bright LEDs in colors throughout the visible spectrum, including white light. With efficacies greater than incandescent (and approaching that of fluorescent lamps) along with their durability, small size, and light weight, LEDs are finding their way into many new applications within the lighting community. These new applications have placed increasingly stringent demands on the optical characterization of LEDs, which serves as the fundamental baseline for product quality and product design.

Got Good Color? Controlling Color Temperature in Imaging Software
Got Good Color? Controlling Color Temperature in Imaging Software When you capture an image of a specimen, you want it to look like what you saw through the eyepieces. In this article we will cover the basic concepts of color management and what you can do to make sure what you capture is as close to what you see as possible. Get a Reference Let’s define what you want to achieve: you want the image you produce on your computer screen or on the printed page to look like what you see through the eyepieces of your microscope. In order to maximize the match between these images, your system must be setup to use the same reference. White light is the primary reference that you have most control of in your imaging system. It is your responsibility to set it properly at different points in your system. Many Colors of White Although “White” sounds like a defined color, there are different shades of white. This happens because white light is made up of all wavelengths in the visible spectrum. True white light has an equal intensity at every wavelength. If any wavelength has a higher intensity than the rest, the light takes on a hue related to the dominant wavelength. A simple definition of the hue cast of white light is called “Color Temperature”. This comes from its basis in the glow of heated materials. In general the lower the temperature (in °Kelvin = C° + 273) the redder the light, the higher the temperature the bluer the light. The one standard white lighting in photography and photomicrography is 5000°K (D50) and is called daylight neutral white.

UNIT V: Colour models and colour applications – properties of light – standard primaries and the chromaticity diagram – xyz colour model – CIE chromaticity diagram – RGB colour model – YIQ, CMY, HSV colour models, conversion between HSV and RGB models, HLS colour model, colour selection and applications. TEXT BOOK 1. Donald Hearn and Pauline Baker, “Computer Graphics”, Prentice Hall of India, 2001. Prepared by Dr.P.Sumathi COLOR MODELS Color Model is a method for explaining the properties or behavior of color within some particular context. No single color model can explain all aspects of color, so we make use of different models to help describe the different perceived characteristics of color. 15-1. PROPERTIES OF LIGHT Light is a narrow frequency band within the electromagnetic system. Other frequency bands within this spectrum are called radio waves, micro waves, infrared waves and x-rays. The below figure shows the frequency ranges for some of the electromagnetic bands. Each frequency value within the visible band corresponds to a distinct color. The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies (the spectrum) of electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths and photon energies. Spectral colors range from the reds through orange and yellow at the low-frequency end to greens, blues and violet at the high end. Since light is an electromagnetic wave, the various colors are described in terms of either the frequency for the wave length λ of the wave. The wavelength and frequency of the monochromatic wave is inversely proportional to each other, with the proportionality constants as the speed of light C where C = λ f.

Appendix G: the Pantone “Our Color Wheel” Compared to the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) 1
Appendix G - 1 Appendix G: The Pantone “Our color Wheel” compared to the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) 1 There is considerable interest in the conversion of Pantone identified color numbers to other numbers within the CIE and ISO Standards. Unfortunately, most of these Standards are not based on any theoretical foundation and have evolved since the late 1920's based on empirical relationships agreed to by committees. As a general rule, these Standards have all assumed that Grassman’s Law of linearity in the visual realm. Unfortunately, this fundamental assumption is not appropriate and has never been confirmed. The visual system of all biological neural systems rely upon logarithmic summing and differencing. A particular goal has been to define precisely the border between colors occurring in the local language and vernacular. An example is the border between yellow and orange. Because of the logarithmic summations used in the neural circuits of the eye and the positions of perceived yellow and orange relative to the photoreceptors of the eye, defining the transition wavelength between these two colors is particularly acute.The perceived response is particularly sensitive to stimulus intensity in the spectral region from 560 to about 580 nanometers. This Appendix relies upon the Chromaticity Diagram (2016) developed within this work. It has previously been described as The New Chromaticity Diagram, or the New Chromaticity Diagram of Research. It is in fact a foundation document that is theoretically supportable and in turn supports a wide variety of less well founded Hering, Munsell, and various RGB and CMYK representations of the human visual spectrum.
