    Principle of Measurement Spectral Fitting Method Konica Minolta’s newly-developed spectral fitting method provides tristimulus values (XYZ = red, green, blue) with significantly higher accuracy than that of conventional tris- timulus colorimeters. This is achieved by using the output from 40 sensors to calculate the spectral response corresponding to human eye sensitivity (CIE 1931 color-matching functions).

Measured data is evaluated based on lumi- nance which has been stored as light source data in CS-S10w. See instruction manual of CS-S10w for details.
