Abstract
velopment of a calibration facility for spectroradiometric, colorimetric, and goniometric measurements of displays, display colorimeters, and spectroradiometers has been completed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). An overview of the facility and results of the characterization measurements are presented. The results show that the facility is capable of measuring colors of sources with an expanded uncertainty (k=2) of 0.001 for chromaticity (x, y) and 1% for luminance (Y). The new calibration services from NIST are designed to reduce the uncertainty of color measurements using commercial instruments to a level approaching that of the NIST reference instrument.
