Using an instrument called a colorimeter, a given solid color may be quantified by analyzing physical color data and by treating the results so they apply to color as we see it and use it in practice. Most colorimeters measure an area of at least one-half inch.
instrument (colorimeter) measures color differences. Used in measuring the color of blood to determine the proportion of hemoglobin.
An analytical method by which the amount of a compound in solution can be determined by measuring the strength of its color by either visual or photometric methods.
The measurement of color.
The science of measuring color and color appearance. Classical colorimetry deals primarily with color matches rather than with color appearance as such. The main focus of colorimetry has been the development of methods for predicting perceptual matches on the basis of physical measurements.
the science and technique of measuring colours according to objective criteria.
Colorimetry is the science that describes colors in numbers, or provides a physical color match using a variety of measurement instruments. Colorimetry is used in chemistry, and in industries such as colour printing, textile manufacturing, paint manufacturing and in the food industry.
