Color image reproduction based on multispectral and multiprimary imaging: experimental evaluation

TLDR
It is confirmed that the 6-primary display gives improved agreement between the original and reproduced colors, and the color reproduction results with different spectral distributions but same CIE tristimulus value are visually compared.
Abstract
Multispectral imaging is significant technology for the acquisition and display of accurate color information. Natural color reproduction under arbitrary illumination becomes possible using spectral information of both image and illumination light. In addition, multiprimary color display, i.e., using more than three primary colors, has been also developed for the reproduction of expanded color gamut, and for discounting observer metamerism. In this paper, we present the concept for the multispectral data interchange for natural color reproduction, and the experimental results using 16-band multispectral camera and 6-primary color display. In the experiment, the accuracy of color reproduction is evaluated in CIE (Delta) Ea*b* for both image capture and display systems. The average and maximum (Delta) Ea*b* = 1.0 and 2.1 in 16-band mutispectral camera system, using Macbeth 24 color patches. In the six-primary color projection display, average and maximum (Delta) Ea*b* = 1.3 and 2.7 with 30 test colors inside the display gamut. Moreover, the color reproduction results with different spectral distributions but same CIE tristimulus value are visually compared, and it is confirmed that the 6-primary display gives improved agreement between the original and reproduced colors.

Color reproduction system

TL;DR: In this paper, a color reproduction system for calculating a display signal by the Lagrange's method of undetermined coefficients or the reduced gradient method was proposed, whereby a signal calculating section (22) minimizes a difference of two squares between a subject spectrum and a display spectrum of a remaining degree of freedom under the constricting condition that the colorimetric value of the subject spectrum calculated by a colourimetric calculated section (21) agrees with that of the display spectrum for a six-elementary-color display.
