Describes a color space defined using synthetic primaries based on human perception, independent of the properties of any physical device. Device-independent color models provide an unambiguous description of perceived color, unlike device-dependent color models.
A characteristic of software and files that generate the same output regardless of the hardware involved. A device-independent program could, for example, issue the same command to draw a rectangle regardless of whether the output device was a printer, a plotter, or a screen display.
Describes a color space that can be defined using the full gamut of human vision, as defined by a standard observer, independent of the color-rendering capabilities of any specific device.
(adj.) Characteristic of software that has been written expressly for portability across dissimilar computer systems. An industry-standard graphics library, such as Programmer's Hierarchical Interactive Graphics System (PHIGS), is a device-independent interface. Contrast with device-dependent.
adj. Refers to a display list that is not associated with a particular display device. That is, the gopen statement's 〈 path〉 and 〈 driver〉 parameters specify "〈 dev〉/null" and "display_list", respectively, and the associated display list can be displayed on any active display device. Contrast device-dependent.
This known as of a colorimetric space able to return account of a color whatever the characteristics of the elements of the numerical chain of image processing. CIE-xyY space makes of it in particular party.
