The YE0223 is designed for evaluation of the halftone reproduction of electronic cameras. Two 13-graduated counter current gray scales are arranged on a gray background (D = 0.75), the gray scales being graduated logarithmically. Related to the densities of the gray scales: gamma = 0.45, related to the transmission values (brightness): gamma = 2.2, that being exactly the reciprocal value of gamma = 0.45. The output signal of a optimally gamma-corrected camera yields two 13-gratuated counter current linear step signals.

The contrast range of the gray scales is 200 : 1.

The values of the 11-graduated gray scale are as follows:

 
Step Density Reflectance in %
1 0.05 89
2 0.13 74
3 0.21 62
4 0.30 50
5 0.40 40
6 0.51 31
7 0.63 23
8 0.78 17
9 0.95 11
10 1.15 7
11 1.41 4
12 1.77 2
13 2.35 0.5
 

The density of the white field between the gray scale is D = 0.05 (reflectance = 89 %).

FAQs About  Grayscale Charts

To keep a neutral background, helping to reduce color distortion and bias.

A coating thickness gauge measures film layers by identifying shifts in magnetic flux, eddy currents, or ultrasonic echoes as they penetrate the coating. The gauge calculates thickness based on the magnitude of these signals. This universally accepted approach results in quick, reliable, and non-invasive measurements. 

The main instruments used to detect color are spectrophotometers and colorimeters (including photoelectric integrating colorimeters). 

Spectrophotometer: High-precision option. It analyzes the full visible light spectrum to measure color accurately. Suitable for complex scenarios like textured surfaces, special effect colors, or batch consistency checks in industries such as paint and coatings. 

Colorimeter (Photoelectric Integrating Colorimeter): Cost-effective and portable. It uses RGB filters to measure tristimulus values directly. Ideal for quick color difference detection in simple applications. Key Selection Tip Choose based on accuracy needs: use a spectrophotometer for high-precision color measurement, and a colorimeter for fast, basic color difference checks.


L*a*b* is an L*a*b* color space. The L* is a measure of lightness (as 0 = black, 100 = white), a* indicates the green to red axis, and b* indicates the blue to yellow axis. It is also common in color measurement in terms of precision and reliability.


a. Before installation, please Copy CQCS3 folder to your computer and don’t remove any files in CQCS3 folder.

b. Double-click the setup.exe to install CQCS3 software.

c. Then double-click Install.bat under the CQCS3USB_Driver file to install the driver.

d. Detailed installation information please read the "Installing Software" under CQCS3 User manual.doc.

The various colors can be measured by the way a surface reflects, absorbs, or transmits light at different wavelengths. These responses may be measured using instruments such as colorimeters or spectrophotometers to give numeric values in a standardized color space such as L *a*b*.
