摘要: A system includes a memory to store pre-computed boundary look-up tables (LUTs) for respective drop weight boundary classes of a printer having a plurality of colorants. Each pre-computed boundary LUT provides one Neugebauer Primary area coverage (NPac) for each node of the LUT in response to a device color input value that corresponds to each node. Measurement data stored in the memory represent measured drop weight values for the plurality of different colorants of the printer. A processor executes instructions that interpolate among the pre-computed LUTs based on the measured drop weight values to determine a proportional weighting of each of the pre-computed LUTs.

摘要: A method of detecting printing fluid mixing is provided. A test pattern for at least one printing fluid is printed with a printing device. The test pattern for the at least one printing fluid is scanned with a scanning device. Colorimetric data of the test pattern for the at least one printing fluid are obtained. Metric values are determined from the colorimetric data. A statistical analysis is performed on the determined metric values. Based on the statistical analysis, it is determined whether printing fluid mixing has occurred and where printing fluid mixing has occurred.

摘要: Certain examples described herein relate to the use of three-dimensional threshold matrices in the production of three-dimensional objects. In one case, data values for a three-dimensional matrix for use in halftoning are assigned based on a structural volume coverage representation. In certain described cases, the structural volume coverage representation defines a probabilistic distribution of at least two different structures available for the production of the three-dimensional object. A convex combination of the at least two different structures is determined, based on data values of the structure volume coverage representation. A data value may be assigned to the three-dimensional matrix based on the convex combination determined. The resultant three-dimensional matrix is used in a halftoning operation to control a structure distribution in the three-dimensional object.

摘要: Certain examples described herein relate to the processing of object data corresponding to a three-dimensional object. First data corresponding to a first portion of the three-dimensional object and second data corresponding to a second portion of the three-dimensional object, separate from the first portion, are determined. The first data is halftoned using a first halftoning technique to generate control instructions for an apparatus to produce the first portion of the three-dimensional object. The second data is halftoned using a second halftoning technique to generate control instructions for the apparatus to produce the second portion of the three-dimensional object.

摘要: A method of color halftone processing is disclosed. A plurality of color mappings each provide a mapping from a color value in a color space to a set of Neugebauer Primary area coverage (NPac) values in an NPac space. An imaging metric is obtained for each NPac value in the set. An NPac value in the set is selected based on the imaging metric. The selected NPac value is used as an output NPac value in a combined color mapping for the color value.

摘要: Certain methods and systems are described to provide color modelling. This color modelling applies to halftone images. In one example, a correction parameter for a color model is determined by minimizing a distance metric between a set of estimated spectral reflectance values and a set of measured spectral reflectance values to generate a multi-dimensional correction parameter. This enables a color model to be used to map at least one Neugebauer Primary area coverage value to at least one spectral reflectance value.

摘要: A method for setting properties of a three-dimensional object in an additive manufacturing process, e.g. 3D-Printing, in which data representing a three-dimensional object to be printed is obtained. The data comprises sub-volumes representing the three-dimensional object. The position of the sub-volumes in the three-dimensional object is identifyied by a positional pomponent, i.e. a location depth and an orientation angle. A characteristic for the three-dimensional object to be printed is identified or set by the user. The property data is set for individual sub-volumes to be used in printing the three-dimensional object based on the identified characteristic and positional component. The property data comprises material property data, structural property data and printing property data.

摘要: Methods and apparatus of determining a halftone scheme are described. In an example, data representing a three-dimensional object is obtained, the data comprising object model data representing the geometry of the three-dimensional object and object property data representing at least one object property of at least a portion of the object. It is determined if a halftone scheme dependent object property is specified by the object property data and a halftone scheme is determined. Data representing a portion of the object having a halftone scheme dependent object property is associated with a determined halftone scheme.

摘要: Examples of a method and a system for configuring an imaging system are described. These examples involve obtaining a random sample of area coverage representations and grouping these by an estimated color, such as a colorimetric value. In each group a selected area coverage representation is determined with respect to one or more imaging attributes. A color gamut based on the random sample and the selected area coverage representations are used to generate a color mapping from an input color space to an area coverage representation space for use by the imaging system.
