ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for measuring and controlling the color of a moving web in which a circular variable bandpass filter having a passband varying substantially continuously with angular displacement through the optical spectrum is interposed in the optical path between the web and a detector and is rotated to produce a detector output which periodically scans the optical spectrum. In one disclosed embodiment, the detector outputs at the various wavelengths are weighted to produce X, Y and Z tristimulus values while, in another disclosed embodiment, dye flows are so controlled as to minimize the total square error between the measured reflectance spectrum and the desired reflectance spectrum.
