1. Introduction
Enter the LaCie blue eye 2 color management solution. The
LaCie blue eye vision colorimeter and LaCie blue eye 2
software deliver precise color control for monitors, allowing
for calibration of the three red, green and blue gains of the
monitor individually, and then creating an ICC profile of the
monitor.
These profiles provide a description of the monitor’s
individual characteristics, measuring the gamma, white point
and luminance. Profiles created with a colorimeter and
software, such as those created by the LaCie blue eye 2, are
more accurate and help programs like Adobe PhotoShop
display images properly.
Graphic professionals working in color-managed
environments will be able to adjust every monitor in their
image chain, allowing them to evaluate images and perform
real-time edits with assured accuracy. A properly calibrated
and profiled monitor also allows for “soft-proofing,” because the image is verified, which saves time and money. Whether
you’re using Macs or PCs, CRTs or TFTs, every monitor will display the images as they were intended.
