Colorimetry: Understanding the CIE System

The definitive reference on CIE colorimetry
Since 1931, the CIE (the International Commission on Illumination, abbreviated as CIE from the original French, Commission Internationale de l′Eclairage) has set colorimetric standards and procedures that are now integral in performing laboratory and industrial color measurements. Over the past seventy–six years, the CIE has periodically issued updates and further recommendations regarding colorimetry; this book compiles this information in one practical, comprehensive resource that:Addresses all aspects of CIE colorimetry, including: basic principles, colorimetric measurements and calculations (including uncertainty analysis), color difference and color appearance evaluation, color management, visual fundamentals and their implications in updating the colorimetric system (i.e., temporal and spatial problems), and moreCovers the historical background of colorimetric measurements, recent developments, and future perspectivesHelps readers understand the fundamentals and properly use the current international standards and recommendationsPresents the material?in a tutorial format that is accessible to both professionals in the field and studentsIncludes several appendices, with a listing of CIE publications and more
This is the single–source, hands–on reference for color and vision scientists, industrial color engineers, and lighting and optical engineers. It is also an excellent textbook for upper–level undergraduate or graduate courses dealing with colorimetry.

Nota biograficzna:
Janos Schanda, PhD, is Professor Emeritus of the University of Pannonia in Hungary, where he taught colorimetry and visual ergonomics. He headed the Department of Image Processing and Neurocomputing between 1996 and 2000, and served as secretary of the CIE. He is a member of the advisory boards of Color Research and Application, Lighting Research and Technology, Light and Engineering, and Journal of Light and Visual Environment.
