Interview with John Atkinson on Tristimulus

CIE Tristimulus Filters Designed for Your Unique Requirements

Chroma Technology designs and manufactures customized filters that consider the response function of the detector and/or the spectral power distribution of a light source. We understand that every color measurement application has its distinct challenges. Whether you need filters matching the Standard Observer functions or your Customized functions, we’ve got your solution. That's why we offer comprehensive customization options for our tristimulus filters, ensuring they perfectly match your specific light source or detector requirements.

Accuracy in Display Measurement

Applications using colorimeters to measure color fidelity depend on highly accurate optical filters like Chroma Technology’s Tristimulus filters.

Display to be measured

spectra for display measurement Common display types include AMOLED, OLED and QLED but any light emitting display which can be calibrated should be measured.

Accurate Filters

Spectra for CIE standard In a colorimeter, light passes through the tristimulus filters which match the intended color matching functions. Chroma Technology also designs and manufactures Customized filters which take into account the response function of the detector and/or the spectral power distribution of a light source. Whether you need filters matching the Standard Observer functions or your own Customized functions, we’ve got your solution.
