Common descriptors of light quality fail to predict the chromatic diversity produced by the same illuminant in different contexts. The aim of this paper was to study the influence of the chromatic adaptation in the context of the development of the color diversity index, a new index capable of predicting illuminant-induced variations in several types of images. The spectral reflectance obtained from hyperspectr...
Color perception in real conditions is determined by the spectral and spatial properties of objects and illumination. These properties are best evaluated by spectral imaging, a technique that records the reflecting spectral profile for each point of the scene. Using this technique on a set of natural scenes it was found that the color gamut expressed in the CIELAB color space is much smaller than the theoretica...
The advent of modern solid-state sources enabled almost any spectrum for lighting and a wide range of possibilities in color rendering. The quality of the lighting has been typically evaluated by the color rendering index which measures how much the colors of objects illuminated by the light under test look similar to those produced when the objects are illuminated by the daylight or a conventional incandescent...
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the influence of the position (upright vs. supine) in the intraocular pressure (IOP) measured with a non-contact portable tonometer. Methods: Fifty university students with a mean age of 22.3±4.2 years (mean±SD) were recruited to participate in this study. IOP was measured with the non-contact tonometer Keeler, Pulsair EasyEye. Measurements in upright and supine posi...
A cor dos vinhos tintos é um dos atributos mais importantes na avaliação das suas características organolépticas, constituindo um parâmetro de qualidade. Como indicativo de qualidade pode inibir ou induzir o consumo. O consumidor espera determinadas características cromáticas em função do produto adquirido. O objectivo deste trabalho foi estudar o efeito do "terroir", do porta-enxerto e do ano de vindima nas ca...
The present paper reports the influence of growth conditions on the properties of TiN thin films deposited by rf reactive magnetron sputtering in the low-pressure range. The effects of rf power at the Ti target and the negative bias voltage at the substrate in the morphology, structure, electrical resistivity and colour of the samples were studied in detail. X-Ray diffraction results showed that the delta-TiN p...
Relational color constancy, which refers to the constancy of perceived relations between surface colors under changes in illuminant, may be based on the computation of spatial ratios of cone excitations. As this activity need occur only within rather than between cone pathways, relational color constancy might be assumed to be based on relative luminance processing. This hypothesis was tested in a psychophysica...
