Abstract
A spectrometry method used by a spectrometry apparatus including a spectrometry section including a spectrometer and an imaging device that captures a spectroscopic image, a spectroscopic controller that controls the action of the spectrometer, and an image generator that generates the spectroscopic image, the method including generating the spectroscopic image, dividing the range of the spectroscopic image into a plurality of regions including at least a first region, determining a reference value of a color value, generating a first region spectrum based on the spectroscopic image of the first region, calculating first region tristimulus values based on the first region spectrum, calculating a first region color value based on the first region tristimulus values, and calculating a first region color difference that is the color difference between the first region color value and the reference value by using a color difference formula.
