  2. Contents • Introduction: • The nature of light • The physiology of human vision • Color Spaces: • Linear (RGB, CMYK) • Artistic View (Munsell, HSV, HLS) • Standard (CIE-XYZ) • Perceptual (Luv, Lab) • Opponent (YIQ, YUV) – used in TV

  5. 1 Relative Power 0.5 0 400 500 600 700 Wavelength (l) Spectral Power Distribution • The Spectral Power Distribution (SPD) of a light is a function P() which defines the power in the light at each wavelength

  6. Examples

  7. The Interaction of Light and Matter • Some or all of the light may be absorbed depending on the pigmentation of the object.

  8. The Physiology of Human Vision

  9. The Human Eye

  11. The Human Retina

  12. Retinal Photoreceptors

  13. Cones • High illumination levels (Photopic vision) • Less sensitive than rods. • 5 million cones in each eye. • Density decreases with distance from fovea.

  14. 3 Types of Cones • L-cones, most sensitive to red light (610 nm) • M-cones, most sensitive to green light (560 nm) • S-cones, most sensitive to blue light (430 nm)

  15. Cones Spectral Sensitivity

  16. Metamers • Two lights that appear the same visually. They might have different SPDs (spectral power distributions)

  17. History • Tomas Young (1773-1829) “A few different retinal receptors operating with different wavelength sensitivities will allow humans to perceive the number of colors that they do. “ • James Clerk Maxwell (1872) “We are capable of feeling three different color sensations. Light of different kinds excites three sensations in different proportions, and it is by the different combinations of these three primary sensations that all the varieties of visible color are produced. “ • Trichromatic: “Tri”=three “chroma”=color

  18. G B R Cubic Color Spaces Polar Color Spaces Opponent Color Spaces Brightness Hue black-white blue-yellow red-green 3D Color Spaces • Three types of cones suggests color is a 3D quantity. How to define 3D color space?

  19. Contents • Introduction: • The nature of light • The physiology of human vision • Color Spaces: • Linear (RGB, CMYK) • Artistic View (Munsell, HSV, HLS) • Standard (CIE-XYZ) • Perceptual (Luv, Lab) • Opponent (YIQ, YUV) – used in TV

  20. Linear Color Spaces Colors in 3D color space can be described as linear combinations of 3 basis colors, called primaries = a· + c· + b· The representation of : (a, b, c) is then given by:

  21. 3 Primary Intensity 2 1 0 400 500 600 700 Wavelength (nm) RGB Color Model • RGB = Red, Green, Blue • Choose 3 primaries as the basis SPDs(Spectral Power Distribution.)

  23. CIE-RGB • Stiles & Burch (1959) Color matching Experiment. • Primaries are: 444.4 525.3 645.2 • Given the 3 primaries, we can describe any light with 3 values (CIE-RGB): (85, 38, 10) (21, 45, 72) (65, 54, 73)

  28. 50 CMY + Black • Using three inks for black is expensive • C+M+Y = dark brown not black • Black instead of C+M+Y is crisper with more contrast C + M + Y = K (black) = + 100 50 70 50 0 20 C M Y K C M Y

  35. Color Spaces • Linear (RGB, CMYK) • Artistic View (Munsell, HSV, HLS) • Standard (CIE-XYZ) • Perceptual (LUV, Lab) • Opponent (YIQ, YUV) – used in TV

  36. white The Artist Point of View • Hue - The color we see (red, green, purple) • Saturation - How far is the color from gray (pink is less saturated than red, sky blue is less saturated than royal blue) • Brightness/Lightness (Luminance) - How bright is the color

  37. Munsell Color System Equal perceptual steps in Hue Saturation Value. Hue: R, YR, Y, GY, G, BG, B, PB, P, RP (each subdivided into 10) Value: 0 ... 10 (dark ... pure white) Chroma: 0 ... 20 (neutral ... saturated) Example: 5YR 8/4
