Innovative Farbmesstechnik Colour Measurement How and why? When we measure colours we are measuring a sensorial perception , its like measuring taste or odour. By measuring colours the subjectivity of the perceived colour, or more importantly colour difference, is replaced by objective values. As the human colour visual system is based on three receptors, each with a different spectral sensitivity, colours can always be described by three values. The perceived colour is also dependent on the ambient light, which is a further variable affecting the colour. Another variable is the field of view,...

Innovative Farbmesstechnik Two main geometries in one device 45°/0° AND d/8° The two main geometries in use today are the 45°/0° and the d/8° geometry described in DIN 5033. The normal 45°/0° geometry of the ColorLite sph900/sph860 can be easily converted to a d/8°, using our optional accessory MA35-UK. High optical resolution of 3.5 nm steps One hundred and fifteen (115) 16-Bit spectral values are measured for each scan, using a highly robust optical grating and Hamamatsu line sensor. This ensures a good correlation, even with elaborate desktop spectrophotometers. Many spectrophotometers on the...
