The BYK-Gardner color2view benchtop spectrophotometer combines several different measurement methods, becoming an objective eye that evaluates our visual color impression in its entity. It uses a circumferential illumination at 45° with 0° viewing to measure color as you see it. In addition, the color2view has a fluorimeter integrated to predict lightfastness by quantifying fluorescence – the calculated color change after fluorescence degradation is displayed with easy-to-understand CIELAB- and DE data.
