Many researchers are working on various aspects of color imaging. However, it is apparent from the papers published that it is difficult for many of them to produce high quality color reproductions. While our previous work outlined the steps needed to produce calibrated color images, the problem of creating the programs to implement the process locally seems to be a serious problem. To surmount...

The Cover Feature shows the build instructions for Open Polarimeter (“Opol”) – a high-resolution chemical polarimeter formed from small number of inexpensive optomechanical parts. complete instrument can be assembled scratch in just two days less than US$250, using only 3D-printer and benchtop milling machine. Despite its low cost, Opol achieves high accuracy few millidegrees, comparable to far...

The purpose of this presentation is to stress the need for colour management whenever a computer is used for the acquisition, visualisation, or reproduction of coloured objects. By calibrating colour peripherals to a common standard, Colour Management System (CMS) software makes it easier to match the colours that are scanned to those that appear on the monitor and printer, and also to match co...
