Color Knowledge Introduced: The CIELAB Color Space
In the past, many of the color difference formula to the practical industrial application called a big inconvenience becauseof the different between the color formula for mutual conversion of data difficult or impossible, the result of the different between the calculated ratio of the non-interoperability.
To change this chaotic situation, uniform color evaluation criteria, the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976 recommended a very uniform color space CIELAB color difference formula corresponding to unify the application of color difference formula, making the application more colorimeter general , widespread.
CIELAB uniform color space is a three-dimensional system, the color of the three-dimensional distribution as shown in
Figure 1. Since its inception in CIELAB color space, based on this principle colorimeter developed in the industrial sector has
been widely used, especially in the manufacture of printing and dyeing pigments, paints, textile printing and dyeing, printing
ink, plastic industry products such as coloring color quality control has a very important position.
