Abstract
A method for matching colors includes providing a first source of a first color and a second source of a second color; measuring a set of spectral values for first color stimuli associated with the first color; calculating a first set of tristimulus values; defining a first set of human observer color matching functions; calculating a first set of corrected tristimulus values from the first set of spectral values using the first set of human observer color matching functions; measuring a second set of spectral values for second color stimuli associated with the second color; calculating a second set of tristimulus values; defining a second set of human observer color matching functions; calculating a second set of corrected tristimulus values from the second set of spectral values; determining a difference between the first and second set of corrected tristimulus values; and adjusting one of the sources to reduce the difference.
