Color it is viewed, may alter its perception considerably; for example, a low-intensity orange-yellow is brown, and a low-intensity yellow-green is olive green. The color of an object depends on both the physics of the object in its environment and the characteristics of the perceiving eye and brain. Physically, objects can be said to have the color of the light leaving their surfaces, which normally depends on the spectrum of the incident illumination and the reflectance properties of the surface, as well as potentially on the angles of illumination and viewing. Some objects not only reflect light, but also transmit light
Gardner color scale Gardner color scale Gardner Color Scale is a one-dimensional scale to measure the shade of the color yellow. Colors of transparent liquids have been studied visually since the early 19th century. Changes in color can indicate contamination or impurities in the raw materials, process variations, or degradation of products over time. One dimensional scales for yellowness were created, e.g., Gardner Color Scale. The yellowness of the transparent liquid is determined by pouring the sample into a tube and comparing it to a pre determined and known standard. The standard that the sample falls closest to then becomes the value for
