metamerism

Such light sources may appear to be the same color; this effect is called metamerism.

Because of metamerism, it is possible to have quite different spectra that appear white.

Metamerism is a phenomenon in which the perceived color of an object changes with the light source.

Metamerism (color), relates to two colors and their relation under different light sources.

I know this is metamerism, but is there any way of working out what color a surface will appear under different light sources?

Making metamerism matches using reflective materials is more complex.

Segmentation is not the same concept as metamerism.

Replies: Answer: Metamerism refers to the situation where two physically different lights look the same.

Intensive investigation is necessary to discern the metamerism in the tagmata of such organisms.

Jim Swenson This is a color spectrometric phenomenon called "metamerism".

Metamerism can be divided into two main categories:

These are the only remnants of the ancestral metamerism to be visible in extant cephalopods.

Technically, this effect is called "metamerism".

The results, in terms of color accuracy (metamerism index), were state of the art at the time of their invention.

For other meanings see the metamerism page.'

Nevertheless, they do provide a measure, called the Metamerism Index, to assess the quality of daylight simulators.

Metamerism has at least three meanings:

In colorimetry, metamerism is the matching of apparent color of objects with different spectral power distributions.

All surfaces exhibit "metamerism" (a technical term you can search) the means that the "color" perceived depends upon the makeup of the incident light.

The difference in the spectral compositions of two metameric stimuli is often referred to as the degree of metamerism.

First, a couple of comments on the term "metamerism" because it is not widely understood by the general public - much less by science literate individuals.

The Metamerism Index tests how well five sets of metameric samples match under the test and reference illuminant.
