Abstract
A program has recently been established at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to develop calibration services for color-measuring instruments to address commercial and industrial needs for higher-accuracy measurements of displays. In particular, a reference spectroradiometer has been built with the goal of enabling measurements of displays at the lowest possible uncertainty. The instrument has been assessed using detailed simulations incorporating the measured performance characteristics of the instrument. In the simulations, the uncertainty in color measurements of sixteen CRT and LCD display colors was calculated. The results of the simulations imply that the instrument is capbale of measuring colors of displayss with an uncertainty of {difference} .001 in x,y.
