Analytical colorimetry - Part 4: Metamerism index for pairs of samples for change of illuminant (ISO 18314-4:2024)

This document specifies a formalism for the calculation of the illuminant metamerism of solid surface colours. It cannot be applied to colours of effect coatings without metrical adaptation.
This document only covers the phenomenon of metamerism for change of illuminant, which has the greatest meaning in practical application. In the case where chromaticity coordinates of a pair of samples under reference conditions do not exactly match, this document gives guidance on which correction measures to take. Regarding the reproduction of colours, the metamerism index is used as a measure of quality in order to specify tolerances for colour differences between a colour sample and a colour match under different illumination conditions.
The quantification of the illuminant metamerism of pairs of samples is formally performed by a colour difference assessment, for which tolerances that are common for the evaluation of residual colour differences can be used.
NOTE       In the colorimetric literature and textbooks, the term geometric metamerism is sometimes used for the case where two colours appear to be the same under a specific geometry for visual assessment and selected standard observer and standard illuminant pair, but are perceived as two different colours at changed observation geometry. The term geometric metamerism is different to metamerism described in this document.

Analytische Farbmessung - Teil 4: Metamerie-Index von Probenpaaren bei Lichtartwechsel (ISO 18314-4:2024)

Dieses Dokument legt einen Formalismus zur Berechnung der Lichtart-Metamerie von Uni-Farben fest. Dieser kann ohne Anpassungen in der Metrik nicht auf Effektfarben von Überzügen bzw. Beschichtungen angewendet werden.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nur das Phänomen der Metamerie bei Lichtartwechsel, das in der praktischen Anwendung die größte Bedeutung hat. Für die Fälle, in denen die Farborte eines Probenpaares unter Referenz¬bedingungen nicht exakt übereinstimmen, enthält dieses Dokument Leitlinien für die zu ergreifenden Korrekturmaßnahmen. Bei der Reproduktion von Farben wird der Metamerie-Index als Qualitätsmaß verwendet, um Toleranzen für Farbabstände zwischen einer Farbvorlage und einer Farbnachstellung bei unterschiedlichen Beleuchtungsbedingungen festzulegen.
Die Quantifizierung der Lichtart-Metamerie von Probenpaaren wird formal auf eine Farbabstandsbewertung zurückgeführt, bei der Toleranzen herangezogen werden können, die bei der Bewertung reiner Restfarb¬abstände üblich sind.
ANMERKUNG   In der Farbliteratur und Fachbüchern wird manchmal auch der Begriff der geometrischen Metamerie für den Fall verwendet, in dem zwei Farben unter einer bestimmten Beobachtungsgeometrie und einer gewählten Kombination aus Normalbeobachter und Lichtart gleich erscheinen, aber bei veränderter Beobachtungsgeometrie als zwei verschiedene Farben wahrgenommen werden. Der Begriff geometrische Metamerie unterscheidet sich von der in diesem Dokument beschriebenen Metamerie.

Analyse colorimétrique - Partie 4: Indice de métamérisme de paires d'échantillons pour changement d'illuminant (ISO 18314-4:2024)

Le présent document spécifie un formalisme pour le calcul du métamérisme de l’illuminant de couleurs de surfaces solides. Il ne s’applique pas à des couleurs de revêtements à effets sans adaptation métrique.
Le présent document ne couvre que le phénomène de métamérisme pour changement d’illuminant, qui a la plus grande signification dans l’application pratique. Dans le cas où les coordonnées trichromatiques d’une paire d’échantillons dans des conditions de référence ne correspondent pas exactement, le présent document fournit des recommandations sur les mesures de correction à prendre. En ce qui concerne la reproduction de couleurs, l’indice de métamérisme est utilisé comme mesure de qualité, de manière à spécifier des tolérances pour les écarts de couleurs entre un échantillon de couleurs et un appariement des couleurs dans différentes conditions d’éclairage.
La quantification du métamérisme de l’illuminant de paires d’échantillons est formellement réalisée par une évaluation de l’écart de couleur, pour laquelle des tolérances communes à l’évaluation d’écarts de couleurs résiduels peuvent être utilisées.
NOTE       Dans la littérature et les manuels relatifs à la colorimétrie, le terme métamérisme géométrique est parfois utilisé dans le cas où deux couleurs semblent être identiques sous une géométrie spécifique pour l’évaluation visuelle et l’observateur de référence sélectionné et la paire d’illuminants normalisés, mais sont perçues comme deux couleurs différentes lorsque la géométrie d’observation est changée. Le terme métamérisme géométrique est différent du métamérisme décrit dans le présent document.

Analizna kolorimetrija - 4. del: Metamerični indeks parov vzorcev pri spremembi vrste svetila (ISO 18314-4:2024)

Ta dokument določa formalni postopek za izračun metamerizma barv na
trdni površini pri različnih svetilih. Postopka ni mogoče uporabiti za prevleke s posebnim barvnim učinkom brez metrične prilagoditve.
Ta dokument zajema samo pojav metamerizma pri spremembi svetila v najširšem pomenu praktične uporabe. Kjer se kromatske koordinate para vzorcev pod referenčnimi pogoji povsem ne ujemajo, ta dokument podaja napotke o potrebnih korektivnih ukrepih. Metamerični indeks se v zvezi z reprodukcijo barv uporablja kot meritev kakovosti za določanje odstopanja barvnih razlik med barvnim vzorcem in barvnim ujemanjem v različnih pogojih osvetlitve.
Kvantifikacija metamerizma parov vzorcev različnih svetil se formalno izvede z oceno barvne
različnosti, za katero se lahko uporabijo dovoljena odstopanja, ki so običajna pri ocenjevanju razlik ostankov barv.
OPOMBA: V literaturi in učbenikih o kolorimetriji se izraz geometrični metamerizem včasih uporablja za primere, kjer se dve barvi zdita enaki v določeni geometriji za vizualno oceno in pri izbranem standardnem opazovalcu in standardnem paru svetil, vendar se pri spremenjeni geometriji opazovanja dojemata kot dve različni barvi.
Izraz geometrični metamerizem se razlikuje od metamerizma, ki je opisan v tem dokumentu.

Introduction
This document distinguishes three kinds of metamerism of pairs of samples:
a) Illuminant metamerism occurs if both of the object colours of a pair of samples are perceived as being
the same only under a specific illuminant (e.g. under illuminant D65), while they differ under a different
illuminant (e.g. illuminant A).
b) Observer metamerism occurs if the object colours of a pair of samples are perceived as being the same
by one observer, while a different observer perceives a colour difference under the same illuminant and
the same reference conditions.
NOTE 1 The observer metamerism is caused by differences between the distributions of spectral colour
matching functions of different observers.
c) Field-size metamerism occurs if both of the object colours of a pair of samples are perceived as being the
same on the retina for a size of an observation field (e.g. determined by the 2° standard observer), while
they differ for a different observation field on the retina (e.g. 10°).
NOTE 2 The reason for field-size metamerism is based on the existent colour matching functions of an obs
