Color Matching light booth
Color is an ever-present measure of quality, even in a subliminal sense. Whether it be automobiles, food, appliances, toys, etc. we perceive quality by the color of the product and how well the colors cover and match. If an automobile is repaired after an accident, do we first judge the quality of the repair job by the structure of the new part or its metal composition, or do we judge it by how well the color of the fender was matched to the door and hood? Unless the fit is horrible, the vast majority of people will judge the color first.
Too often in color, the lighting environment is taken for granted. We see a light source as "white" and are not concerned with its actual spectral output. If it appears white, it is white and therefore will render colors properly. Or so many people think. In actuality what we call "white light" can have heavy biases toward the red, yellow, green or blue portions of the spectrum. Unless viewed in conjunction with each other, we perceive all of them as "white light." But the human eye integrates the information too easily, and therein lies our problem. Because the eye adapts so well to the various white light sources, it does not take into account the color reflectivity differences of the various objects we see. When it comes to color matching, this can be a very big problem.
Colors appear differently under different lighting sources. To avoid/reduce the assessment error when performing color contrast, we can use of a Light Booth / Viewing Booth / Color Light Box to simulate different light sources to obtain an objective assessment of color and color difference, anytime, anywhere.
The Color matching booths / Colour assessment cabinet / Color Light Box can be applied to the industries that need to perform testing color difference as follows: as the premiere designer and manufacturer of color viewing and lighting products for the Graphic arts, Photographic, Textile, Dyeing, Packaging, Printing, Leather, Inks, Knitwear, Plastic, Automotive and Ceramics industries.
