Cost effective solution for the colour measurement of skin tone with commonly used indexes and colorimetric data

When connected to a compatible portable spectrophotometer the Skin Analysis Software CM-SA2 provides data in several skin-specific indices, as well as common colorimetric values in a single measurement. This can for example be used for evaluation of cosmetics, personal hygiene products, and some pharmaceutical products.

The software is compatible with the camera viewfinder of the CM-17d for accurate positioning of measurements (viewfinder image is also saved with measured data for later review).

Measurements can be made using the major skin measurement indexes allowing researchers to accurately and traceably evaluate efficacy of various products on a range of skin types (cleaning, tinting, inflammation reduction etc).

*2: ITA° values are calculated for a 2° observer and Standard Illuminant D65.

*3: Munsell data are calculated for 2° observer and Standard Illuminant C.

*4: Colorimetric values for each axis can be selected from L*, a*, b*, C*, and h.

*5: Illuminant / Observer can be selected from one of the four conditions.( 2°/C, 2°/D65, 10°/C, 10°/D65 )

*6: The spectral reflectance data that are output are the reflectance obtained in SCI (Specular component included) mode.

*7: CM-17d viewfinder images will be saved only when measurements are taken with Save Viewfinder Image enabled. Saved images are linked with measurement data for later display.

*8: The hardware of the computer system must meet or exceed the greater of the recommended system requirements for the compatible OS being used or the above specifications.
