Abstract

In some embodiments, a computer-implemented method of generating a visualization of wavelength-dependent surface characteristics is provided. A computing device receives an input image captured by a camera, wherein the input image includes information in a low-dimensional color space. The computing device processes the input image to determine spectrum band information in a high-dimensional color space that corresponds to the input image. The computing device extracts subtractive information from the spectrum band information to obtain wavelength-dependent surface characteristic information, The computing device generates the visualization using the wavelength-dependent surface characteristic information. In some embodiments, the computing device may be a smartphone.
