Summary: Outlines of Colorimetric Theory under Photopic Conditions, Part I Outlines of Colorimetric Theory Under Photopic Conditions -- Part II A Theory of Normalized Surface Reflectance for Pigments -- On the Relation of the Trichromatic to the Opponent-Process Theory of Color -- On the Origin of Spectral Sensitivity Functions of the Eye -- On the Apparent Color of Stars, and Color Appearance Under Mesopic Conditions -- The Projective Geometry of Color Space: A Review.Summary: This book presents the most complete translation to date of Erwin Schrödinger’s work on colorimetry. In his work Schrödinger proposed a projective geometry of color space, rather than a Euclidean line-element. He also proposed new (at the time) colorimetric methods – in detail and at length - which represented a dramatic conceptual shift in colorimetry. Schrödinger shows how the trichromatic (or Young-Helmholtz) theory of color and the opponent-process (or Hering) theory of color are formally the same theory, or at least only trivially different. These translations of Schrödinger’s bold concepts for color space have a fresh resonance and importance for contemporary color theory.PPN: PPN: 1658633733Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-SXP | ZDB-2-PHA
