Color matching

The varieties of colors are endless and colorful, but there is a certain internal connection between various colors, and each color has its own characteristics. It can be determined by 3 parameters, namely hue, lightness and saturation. Hue is the characteristic that distinguishes colors from each other. It is determined by the chromatographic composition of the light source and the perception of each wavelength emitted by the surface of the object to the human eye. It can distinguish red, yellow, green, blue, purple and other characteristics.

By comparing the brightness of various colors, colors can be divided into light and dark. Saturation, also known as chroma, is a characteristic value that represents the shade of color on the surface of an object, making the difference between bright and dark colors. Hue, lightness, and saturation form a three-dimensional body. Using these three to create a scale, we can measure color numerically.

The colors in nature are ever-changing, but the most basic ones are red, yellow, and blue, which are called primary colors. Another color formed by mixing these three primary colors in different proportions is called a compound color, for example, red + yellow = orange; blue + green = cyan; orange and cyan are called compound colors.
