Abstract

Recent developments in the field of computer graphics will provide color scientists with a new set of design tools. Real-time shading will make it possible to interactively evaluate surfaces that exhibit complex variation in the direction and color of reflected light. New software simulation techniques will facilitate the prediction of these important surface reflection properties. Together these tools for synthesizing and evaluating color appearance define a new methodology called computer aided color appearance design. This talk reviews the important computer graphics advances in real-time shading and surface reflection modeling that have made this novel approach to color appearance design possible.
