colorimeter

A colorimeter is a device used to measure and analyze colors accurately. It works by shining light on a surface or sample and then detecting how the light reflects or transmits. This data helps determine the precise color, including properties like hue, brightness, and saturation. Colorimeters are widely used in industries such as printing, manufacturing, and design to ensure color consistency and quality. Unlike human eyes, which can perceive slight differences, a colorimeter provides objective, repeatable measurements, making it essential for maintaining accurate color standards.
