Hue: the quality of a color as determined by its dominant wavelength
Chromaticity is an objective specification of the quality of a color regardless of its luminance, that is, as determined by its hue and colorfulness (or saturation, chroma, intensity, or excitation purity).
Chromaticity is the tenth studio album by guitarist Tony MacAlpine, released on August 7, 2001 on Shrapnel Records.
The aspect of color that includes consideration of its dominant wavelength and purity.
The color quality of light which is defined by the wavelength (hue) and saturation. Chromaticity defines all the qualities of color except its brightness.
Refers to the dominant or complementary wavelength and purity aspects of the color taken together, or of the aspects specified by the chromaticity coordinates of the color taken together.
Objective measurement of the color of an object or light source.
Chromaticity tells you what the lamp itself or a neutral surface illuminated by a lamp will look like. Chromaticity sets the "tone" or atmosphere of a room: warm, cool or something in between. Chromaticity (sometimes called color temperature) is usually measured in Kelvins. ...
Measure to identify the color of a light source, typically expressed as (x,y) coordinates on a chromaticity chart.
