VIEWPORT

Product catalog summary
Overview
Datacolor VIEWPORT™ is a digital color assessment tool that enhances the objectivity and accuracy of visual color approval processes. It uses digital camera technology to replace subjective visual observation with an objective, color-calibrated device. VIEWPORT captures images of multi-colored materials under three different lighting conditions (Day, Home, Store) to detect metamerism and color variations.
Key Features
  • Accurate and reproducible capturing of color-calibrated images under three different illuminants.
  • Single-button image capturing with in-situ color calibration for every image.
  • Allows materials traditionally assessed visually to join the objective digital color approval process.
  • Cost-effective, positioned between high-end spectrophotometers and traditional light booths.
Applications
VIEWPORT is suitable for assessing multi-colored materials such as fabric prints, patterns, woodstain, flooring materials, lace, denim, towels, and wall coverings. It provides both visual and numerical color assessments, allowing users to select and measure any color in a sample on-screen.
Technology and Workflow
The system includes an imaging booth with a light cabinet, a digital camera, and a tray for samples. The desktop application processes images for color-calibrated output and calculates color differences. A factory-calibrated high-end graphics monitor ensures accurate on-screen representation. The workflow involves placing the material on a sample tray, capturing images under different lighting conditions, and obtaining numerical color assessment results.
Specifications
  • System requirements include an Intel Core i7 processor, 8GB RAM, and specific graphics and storage capabilities.
  • Light sources include D65, A, TL84, and U3500 for image capturing.
  • Color accuracy is maintained with short-term and long-term repeatability metrics.
  • Environmental conditions require a temperature of 20°C (±2 °C) and 65% humidity.
Conclusion
Datacolor VIEWPORT is a revolutionary color assessment system that improves the traditional visual color control process, making it error-free and enhancing overall production processes. It is designed to meet the needs of retail colorists and QC operators, providing accurate color capture and reproduction for non-solid fabrics and multi-color products.

VIEWPORT-1

Accurate and reproducible Color Assessment for Multi-Colored-Materials VIEWPORT Extend the proven benefits of digital color assessment Datacolor VIEWPORT™ adds objectivity and accuracy to visual color approval processes. Using digital camera technology, VIEWPORT replaces the subjective, visual observer by an objective, color-calibrated device that repeatedly and accurately captures images of multi-colored materials. By acquiring color corrected images under three different lights, Viewport provides a unique way of detecting metamerism, color variations and differences that appear under alternative lights. Viewport’s proprietary technology provides a new dimension of color assessment and is the first solution to capture images in agreement to the visual perception and under three different lights – Day, Home and Store. Objective numerical and visual color assessment for materials than ever Viewport allows to assess multi-colored-materials including fabric prints and patterns, woodstain, flooring materials, heather, lace, denim, towels, wall coverings, and a variety of multicolor fabrics. Where spectro-photometers are unable to assess non-solid colors and materials with open-textured surfaces. Viewport is able to visualize and provide Color Performance Metrics. Features • Accurate and reproducible capturing of colorcalibrated images under 3 different illuminants • Image capturing with a single-button push • In-situ color calibration for every image • Allows currently visually assessed materials, to join the objective digital color approval process • Attractive price point at the level between high-end Spectrophotometers and traditional Light booth Through advanced digital camera technology, Viewport allows users to pick, measure, or compare any color in a multi-colored sample.

DIGITAL COLOR ASSESSMENT Highly accurate materials representation on screen Viewport provides visual and numerical color assessment through established color approval on-screen methods. By choosing specific parts from an image at the pixel-level, any color in a multi-colored sample can be selected and measured on-screen for approval. Using factory calibrated high-end graphics monitor technology from the leader in color-management means highly accurate results. Easy-to-use for increased productivity and reliability The workflow with Viewport starts with the imaging capturing sequence whereby the...
