An integrated color‐appearance model using CIELUV and its applications

A new type of color‐appearance model is presented together with its formulations. It is named In‐CAM(CIELUV), which means the integrated color‐appearance model using CIELUV space. Using the In‐CAM(CIELUV), we can integrate its fields of applications in both colorimetric engineering and artistic color design. Various applications are introduced in colorimetric and color design fields. The In‐CAM(CIELUV) connects directly colorimetric color space and perceptual Hue‐Tone color order systems. In other words, the In‐CAM (CIELUV) gives a colorimetric basis for Hue‐Tone system. The three color attributes in the In‐CAM(CIELUV) space are mutually independent. This is a very convenient feature for selecting color combinations. Some two‐color combinations selected systematically in the In‐CAM(CIELUV) space are shown. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
