Color Recording and Reproduction Systems
彩色记录与重现系统

With the development of digital technology,various kinds of color image processing devices have been more frequently used than ever and color has become even more accessible.The increased use of color has brought with it new challenges and problems.In order to meaningfully record and process color images and to reduce color error caused by color imaging devices,it is essential to understand the mechanisms and limitations of these devices.In this paper,we reviewed some of the most commonly used color image recording and reproduction systems in present day.The system mechanisms and mathematical models used for representing these systems are discussed.The main problems existing in characterization,calibration and designing processes are recapitulated and the techniques used to solve them are also mentioned.This paper also provides a succinct introduction of some relatively new color imaging techniques,as well as their limitations and potentials of future applications.A forecast of research trends is attempted as well.
