Thanks for pointing this out, i did check the available packages before
dwelling on this but i was focussed on the first part of the problem
(spectrum to xyz).
The available convertColor() function is especially welcome that it was
the most inefficient part of the code I produced yesterday. When I've
cleaned up the spectrum_to_xyz() function, I'll ask the maintainers of
colorspace if they want to include it.
Many thanks,
baptiste
Thank you, baptiste.
I have read several programs related with spectrum to XYZ those days.
The efficient way to do spectrum to xyz, is query form the color
matching functions (CMFs) directly, and interpolate the input wavelength
in the CMFs. The higher resolution CMFs (1nm) could be obtained from
http://cvrl.ioo.ucl.ac.uk/.
It seems that convertColor() using the CIE 1931 2 degree CMFs.[1] And I
don't find a way to convert color using CIE 1964 10 degree CMFs, because
the RGB color space parameters available is only based on CIE 1931 2
degree CMFs.[2]
