Research Internship (B. Tech. - Semester Project)

Jan 2008 – Jun 2008 · 5 mos · Lausanne, Vaud, Switzerland · On-site

During my research, I explored & worked on various color prediction models like Yule Nielsen color prediction model, Neugebauer color prediction model and others. I specifically worked on building a color prediction model used in printing devices which were purely based on sensors. These sensors responses were used for calibration of the model instead of using the spectral responses of the calibration patches. The aim of this model was to enhance the process of calibration of the prediction models directly through a scanner instead of using costly spectrophotometer.
