White Point White point, also known as chromatic white or reference white, refers to the color temperature or chromaticity coordinates that define the neutral white appearance of a display device or imaging system under standard viewing conditions. The white point represents the color of pure white light perceived by the human eye and serves as a reference for calibrating and reproducing accurate colors across different devices and media.
Common white point standards include D65 (daylight with a correlated color temperature of 6500 Kelvin) for graphic arts and photography, and D50 (daylight with a correlated color temperature of 5000 Kelvin) for color matching and proofing applications. White point calibration ensures consistency and color accuracy in digital imaging, printing, and display technologies, preventing color shifts, tinting, and inaccuracies in color reproduction. |
