Hmmm... this is definitely only a poor stub. And a spectrophotometer does not have to have 31 channels, although merely a "better" colour-gauging device may. A spectrophotometer should have as many channels (or resolution) as is needed to accurately characterise whatever it is you're trying to measure. 2nm bin-size and a few nm FWHM is not hard to get for some $1000's.

I agree with the others that the page needs to start by "setting the scene" of what colourimetry is (and what it isn't), then the basic premises of the numerical approaches (or links to relevant articles), before going on to applications and instrumentation (or, again, linking).

We gotta make this page mor related to what a person in the field of Colorimetry does. Yes, they use all the devices, but for whom and why and what are challenges, and move allthe device pages over to this page: Spectrophtometer (visual) spectroradimeter colorimeter, etc.

There isn't enough emphasis on the subjective nature of color - the fact that the calculations all rest on psycho-physiological experiments, and that various color models exist to bring out and quantify thigs that are in the end perceptive phenomena.

i need to now how colirmetry is used in industry and its back ground information if sum one knows then can u plz tell me thnk u
