All successful imaging systems employ some form of color managementfor previewing, controlling and adjusting color throughout theimage-production process. Today's increasingly complexsystems pose challenging problems: they must support numerousdevices and media having disparate color properties, and they alsomust provide for the interchange of images among dissimilarsystems. In this book, the authors address and solve these problemsusing innovative methods of representing color in the digitaldomain.
The second edition of this popular book explains thecapabilities and limitations of existing color management systemsand provides comprehensive practical solutions for communicatingcolor within and among imaging systems, from the simplest to themost complex. Beginning with the fundamentals of color and humancolor perception, the book progresses to in-depth analyses of thenature of color images, digital color encoding, color managementsystems and digital color interchange. Fully revised and updated,this second edition of Digital Color Management features newand expanded coverage including:
* electronic displays and electronic imaging systems;
* scene-based and appearance-based color encoding methods;
* color management for digital cinema;
* a Unified Paradigm--a comprehensive, integratedcolor-managed environment for the color-imaging industry;
* four new chapters, two new appendices, and more than 80 newfigures.
This book is an essential resource for engineers, programmersand imaging professionals designing and engineering color-imagingsystems and for others simply looking to increase theirunderstanding of the field. Scientists, researchers, advancedundergraduates and graduate students involved in imaging technologyalso will find this book of significant interest andusefulness.
Reviews for the first edition:
'The absence of unnecessary jargon, the impeccable writingstyle, the material depth leads only to one conclusion: If you buyone digital color book this year, buy this one.' W.David Schwaderer, Digital Camera Magazine
'It [Digital Color Management] fulfils the need amongengineers and scientists for a comprehensive understanding of colormanagement, imaging, media, viewing conditions, appearance andcommunication.' Arthur S. Diamond, Imaging News
