The Internet in combination with digital presses has allowed the geographical distribution of manufacturing printed materials. An increasing number of printed pieces is customized for the recipient; when each printed piece is different, conventional proofing fails, because it is impossible to proof the entire print job. One frequent problem in automatically generated pieces is the readability o...

ABSTARCT With the advent of digital images the problem of keeping picture visualization uniformity arises because each printing or scanning device has its own color chart. So, universal color profiles are made by ICC to bring uniformity in various types of devices. Keeping that color profile in mind various new color charts are created and calibrated with the help of standard IT8 test charts av...

An important challenge for Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) manufacturing is the patterning method of the organic materials used for different colors. In this talk, a Large-Area wet Micro-Printing (LAMP) technique is proposed and demonstrated for organic device patterning. A printing plate is first prepared by surface engineering so that a designed surface energy pattern is achieved. The p...

Many of the proposed ways in which the visual system could disentangle influences of illumination from influences of reflection on the colour of the light that reaches our eyes, are implicitly or explicitly based on the assumption that the average reflectance of our environment is grey; the 'Grey World Hypothesis'. Here we investigate whether subjects make large errors when this assumption is n...

The publisher regrets that in the above article Eq. (A.2) was printed incorrectly. It is now reproduced correctly below

bstract. We propose a novel scanner characterization approach or applications requiring color measurement of hardcopy output in alibration, characterization, and diagnostics applications. The ethod is advantageous for common practical color printing sysems that use more than the minimum of three colorants necessary or subtractive color reproduction; printing with cyan (C), magenta M), yellow (Y...

In this chapter we focus on image segmentation techniques for some very special images — textile images. They are generated from the color halftoning technique in textile and printing production lines. In contrast with natural color images, textile images have some very distinctive features: (1) generally there are a few dominant colors in a textile image, whereas there may exist hundreds of si...

Color-to-color misregistration refers to misregistration between color separations in a printed or display image. Such misregistration in printed halftoned images can result in several image defects, a primary one being shifts in average color. The present paper examines the variation in average color for two-color halftoned images as a function of color-to-color misregistration distance. Dot-o...

Different from robotics-based food manufacturing, three-dimensional (3D) food printing integrates 3D printing and digital gastronomy to revolutionize food manufacturing with customized shape, color, flavor, texture, and even nutrition. Hence, food products can be designed and fabricated to meet individual needs through controlling the amount of printing material and nutrition content. The objec...
