Does your quality control program include visual evaluation? Lighting plays a huge role in how we perceive color. It can help you verify whether the color of your product is acceptable and ensure it remains accurate in every possible lighting condition after purchase.
Many of our customers are finding visual evaluation to be even more important as they transition color reviews and approvals to a different location, such as in the home office or to another remote environment. Others need to start a visual evaluation program because a factory or supplier is closed, but color approvals must continue.
These resources can help you get started with a light booth and implement visual evaluation best practices.
