System for Representing True Colors with Device-Dependent Colors on Surfaces and for Producing Paints and Coatings Matching the True Colors

摘要

An apparatus for displaying paint colors using device-dependent colors is disclosed. The apparatus has a wall portion sized and dimensioned to be substantially similar to a full size wall, and the device-dependent colors have color coordinates that are substantially similar to the color coordinates of paint colors. Lights displaying the device-dependent colors are diffused before illuminating the wall portion. A method for selecting paints using device-dependent colors is also disclosed.
