Metamerism is the three stimulation values are the same but the distribution of the spectrum is different. The difference of spectrum distribution can judge roughly the degree of metamerism for the same color samples. If the shape of spectrum reflectivity curve between copy and standard sample is almost same and has lots of the cross points and superposition, which means low degree of metamerism and small color... -
