4. Color Representation:
Color is visible light between 400nm and
700nm.
Visible light frequencies range between ...
Red = 4.3 x 1014 hertz (700nm)
Violet = 7.5 x 1014 hertz (400nm)
Humans have trichromatic color vision
Three color values
6. Color Representation…
In the eye we have just three distinct 'cone'
cells for detecting light energy.
These respond to a band of wavelength centered
around red (600), green (560) and blue (440);
respectively.
The bands overlap, so, for example green light
excites all three types.
7. The consequence of this is that each type of
cell may be excited similarly from very
different energy distributions
Any distribution of wavelengths will be
perceived by us as a single color,
but two entirely different distributions of
intensities could be perceived as the same color.
8. In order to match a color, we can adjust the
brightness of 3 overlapping primaries until the two
colors look the same.
C = color to be matched
RGB = laser sources (R=700nm, G=546nm, B=435nm)
Selecting three pure light sources (R, G, B) and
mixing them together while varying their respective
intensities, one may be able to create a large
number of colors.
9. Each color satisfies the following linear
combination:
X = r*R + g*G + b*B
where r, g, b are intensities of the red, green and blue light
sources.
Not all colors can be matched in this way.
However, by adding one of the pure colors to an
unknown unmatchable color, we can make a match.
10. This is in effect subtracting a color from the
mix.
X + r*R = g*G + b*B
or X + g*G = r*R + b*B
or X + b*B = r*R + g*G
11. The representation of colors as a mixture of
three components is called the tri-stimulus
representation;
very commonly used in monitors and other
active color devices.
The pure colors used are red, green and blue,
and are referred to as the additive primary
colors.
17. The human eye can distinguish hundreds of thousands of
different colors.
When two colors differ only in hue, the wavelength between
just noticeably different colors varies with the wavelength!
More than 10 nm at the extremes of the spectrum
Less than 2 nm around blue and yellow
Most JND hues are within 4 nm.
Altogether, the eye can distinguish about 128 fully saturated
hues
Human eyes are less sensitive to hue changes in less
saturated light (not a surprise)
18. Complementary colors:
White represents the presence of all three colors –
in equal quantities.
Black represents the absence of the three colors.
Two colors are said to be complementary if their
mix gives white.
A color can be generated by either:
Adding the primary colors – R, G, and B
Removing their complimentary colors.
19. The additive color model:The additive color model:
Red, green and blue are the additive
primaries.
Colors can be generated by adding the
additive primaries to black.
This is referred to as the additive color
model.
20. The subtractive color model:
Primaries – cyan, magenta and yellow.
Also called the CMY model.
Colors are generated by subtracting the three
primaries from other colors.
21. The CIE Chromaticity:
Represents colors in terms of three new
primaries: x, Y and Z
Basically an additive scheme.
22. Practical Colour Displays:
When a transformation is necessary from the CIE standard colour chart
to the colour produced on a specific display device, we must express the
primary colours of the display device by x and y quantities.
Good quality monitors will be calibrated for the CIE colour chart.
For example, a colour CRT monitor may have the following primary colour
sources:
x y z
Red 0.628 0.346 0.026
Green 0.268 0.588 0.144
Blue 0.150 0.07 0.780
These three points define a triangle on the CIE chromaticity diagram, as
shown on diagram 10.5.
Only the points inside this triangle may be reproduced by the display device
