What lemon yellow do you mean anyway?

"The yellow has to be warmer" — "No, it's supposed to look like this lemon." — "But that's greenish...".
The new caddon technology puts these time-consuming and annoying discussions, to an end.

With it you can quickly and efficiently conduct sampling processes with your partners and clients worldwide based on

digital, multi-spectral datasets via internet and phone. Because color:communication brings together the visual impression with exact measurements — pixel by pixel — no matter whether structured, patterned or curved materials.
This worldwide unique technology thus for the first time makes colour effects objective and clearly differs from classic colour management.

- even complex substrates that cannot be measured with X/y-spectrophotometer-tables

3. Digitizing customer samples

4. Generating color accurate digital samples
- as digital color reference for online color-assessments
- as digital color reference for color retouchment of studio shots
- as digital color reference for CGI-applications

2 can:view

 

Functionality

Standard-Lightbox with built in Monitor for:

1. True color display of multispectral images

2. Lightbox for standard lightning such as D50, D65, A, TL84 etc. ...

3. Digital remote visual and metrological color assessments
- color distance reports: reference to reproduction

4. Side-by-side comparing physical and digital multispectral sample
- physical sample in standard lightning vs. depiction on monitor

3 can:spectralize

 

can:spectralize requires for automatic correction of images & textures:

1. Multispectral reference image of can:scan
2. Scanned image or texture data of an RGB scanner (e.g. Metis Superscan data)

With caddon can:connect, RGB image and texture scans can be coloured with the multispectral reference values of the images of the physical reference without the need for masking or colour separation, etc. This is also possible with a high proportion of halftones in the decors.

Such „multispectral coloured images and textures" are automatically coloured into the RGB colours for various standard lighting conditions of the required target colour space in a single process step in seconds.

In 80 to 90% of all cases, no further manual correction step is required; the renderings of these images and textures are then almost identical to the original multispectral referencee. Any corrections that may still  need to be made can then be made with very little effort to achieve optimum colour reproduction.

4 can:colorize

 

Functionality:

Spectral coloring system for digital weave-simulations:

1. Enables digital sample communication of weave-dessins
- provides color accurate digital samples for fast remote assessments between weaving mill and customers

2. links available production color standards to digital processes
- imports QTX or CXF and other spectral data for coloring
- coloring of textures using any spectral measurement value

3. Color accurate coloring of cirtual fabric-textures for quality-control
- provides all available spectral yarn color standards to a digital weave dessin for all possible color combinations
- reduces iterative assessments between to a minimum

4. Provides spectral textures for CGI and 3D applications
- first system worldwide for creating spectral textures and weave simulations in Iray4Maya
- no color-readjustments for changed light-conditions in a scene required
- exports textures to required color space such as Lab, AdobeRGB, sRGB, P3-RGB
