Chapter 10Color Imaging

The first color image, a tartan ribbon, was taken by Sutton in 1861 for a lecture given by Young (Cat 2013). The image was used to demonstrate trichromacy. Advances since that time have changed our cultural landscape including slide and print films, movie film, television, digital photography, digital printing, and digital cinema. Today, color imaging is ubiquitous where each cell phone contains a camera and display. Color consistency is excellent where images can be viewed on different phones, different computer displays, and printed on a variety of printers without large degradations in color quality. The consistency is a result of using colorimetry as a common language, developing transformations between device coordinates and colorimetry, and creating an imaging architecture to facilitate these transformations.
