While much attention has been given to understanding biases in gloss perception (e.g., changes perceived reflectance as a function of lighting, shape, viewpoint, and other factors), here we investigated sensitivity surface reflectance. We tested how visual differences specular varies the magnitude Stimuli consisted renderings glossy objects under natural illumination. Using maximum likelihood d...

A high spatial resolution imaging colorimeter and glossmeter is presented. The combination of a high quality imaging colorimeter with an off axis imaging optics and a highly stabilized RGB LED source allows color and gloss measurements of small parts with high accuracy. The characteristics of the system with some experimental results on black coated and printed papers are presented. Introductio...

Predicting the final appearance of a print is crucial in graphic industry. The aim this work to build mathematical model predict visual gloss 2D printed samples. We conducted psychophysical experiment where observers judged samples with different colours and values. For experiment, new reference scale was built. Using results from prediction for assessment has been developed. By using Principal...
