  2. Color difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_difference

    The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) calls their distance metric ΔE* (also inaccurately called dE*, dE, or "Delta E") where delta is a Greek letter often used to denote difference, and E stands for Empfindung; German for "sensation". Use of this term can be traced back to Hermann von Helmholtz and Ewald Hering.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_S._Hunter

    Richard Hunter had a long list of achievements during a career that spanned over 60 years. In addition to conceiving the L,a,b color scale and its companion Delta E (color difference) scale, he authored the textbook, The Measurement of Color and Appearance, published in 1975 (revised with Richard Harold in 1987). He was an active member of many ...

    The Delta E, or Thor-Delta E was an American expendable launch system used for twenty-three orbital launches between 1965 and 1971. It was a member of the Delta family of rockets. [1] The first stage was a Thor missile in the DSV-2C configuration, and the second stage was the Delta-E, which was derived from the earlier Delta-A.

    The chromaticity coefficients were chosen "on the basis of the spacing of the Munsell system. A lightness difference ΔW = 1 is assumed to correspond to a chromaticness difference √ ΔU 2 + ΔV 2 = 13 (approximately)." [4] With the coefficients thus selected, the color difference in CIEUVW is simply the Euclidean distance:

    Further, H and h are not identical, because HSL space uses as primary colors the three additive primary colors red, green and blue (H = 0, 120, 240°). Instead, the LCh system uses the four colors red, yellow, green and blue (h = 0, 90, 180, 270°). Regardless the angle h, C = 0 means the achromatic colors (non saturated), that is, the gray axis.

    In the CIE 1994 formula for delta_H_star_ab, shouldn't the last term read delta_C_star_ab rather than delta_C_star? Gggustafson 16:20, 16 August 2011 (UTC) []. In the proposed formulation, S_C and S_H depends only frome the first color, with the result that the distance of the first color from the second is not equal to the distance of the second color from the first, violating one of the most ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_of_clothing

    Color is a subjective visual perception that varies between individuals. There are spectrophotometers that can objectively compare spectral values and colors. Though colors are viewed visually and digitally, both depend on the customer's requirements. [33] [34] Delta E (dE-CMC) expresses the difference between the original standard and the ...

  9. Color rendering index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_rendering_index

    Researchers use daylight as the benchmark to which to compare color rendering of electric lights. In 1948, daylight was described as the ideal source of illumination for good color rendering because "it (daylight) displays (1) a great variety of colors, (2) makes it easy to distinguish slight shades of color, and (3) the colors of objects around us obviously look natural".
