Visual appearance of objects comes from the interpretation by the human visual system of a light signal issued from the objects. Describing or predicting appearance is therefore a question of light and requires notions about light propagation and measureme ...
We propose a new spectral prediction model as well as new approaches for modeling ink spreading which occurs when printing ink layer superpositions. The spectral prediction model enhances the classical Clapper-Yule model by taking into account the fact tha ...
This study aims at modeling ink spreading in order to improve the prediction of the reflection spectra of three ink color prints. Ink spreading is a kind of dot gain which causes significant color deviations in ink jet printing. We have developed an ink sp ...
The proposed new spectral reflection model enhances the classical Clapper-Yule model by taking into account the fact that proportionally more incident light through a given colorant surface is reflected back onto the same colorant surface than onto other c ...
The present invention facilitates the calibration of printers and the color separation of input images into a set of inks by disclosing methods and systems for populating device-calibration lookup tables. The disclosed methods and systems rely on a compreh ...
The present invention discloses methods and systems for printing by superposing a metallic ink and transparent inks. These methods and systems are useful for color separating images into superpositions of a metallic ink and transparent inks both for design ...
By combining a metallic ink and standard inks, one may create printed images having a dynamic appearance: an image viewed under specular reflection may be considerably different from the same image viewed under non-specular reflection. Patterns which are e ...
A method of generating an image incorporating a microstructure includes the steps of obtaining an original image, generating a microstructure, and rendering a region or the whole said original image with said microstructure. The operation of generating the ...
We present a prediction model for digital printers and more specifically for electrophotographic devices. On the one hand, we propose an electrophotographic simulation model which estimates the microscopic structure of any printed toner layer based on its ...
Several models predict the reflectance of a rough metallic surface. They are however not adapted to the surfaces used in the packaging industry, such as boxes made of printed metallic plates. For printing purposes, metallic surfaces need to be varnished. L ...
