Abstract

The measurement geometry affects the results of the instrumental assessment of the color and appearance of objects. In the present study, the results of property measurement of different eight-glossy white samples and six-glossy color Munsell were considered with two variant forms of the geometries, i.e., 45°a:0° and di:8°. The color coordinates with the CIE whiteness index and tint were evaluated. These results shown for the glossy color Munsell samples; there is an average of 10 units of DE*ab in CIELAB color space between di:8° and 45°a:0° geometry, which can sometimes reach to about 15 units. For the glossy white samples, although the specular component was removed at 45°a:0° measuring results from the reflectance data, the lightness, hue, and chroma attributes did not show noticeable change. Therefore, an average of 0.88 units of DE*ab between two measurement geometry on glossy white samples proved the results of measuring could be, to some extent, device-geometry independent.
