Using the New Colour Management Technology, iccMAX: Architecture and Practical Applications
Instructor: Philip Green, NTNU
Level: Intermediate
Duration: 2 hours plus 15 minute break. After the class, adjourn to Zoom to join the instructor and other students in a discussion of the class.
Course Time:
    New York: Friday 6 November, 10:00-12:15
    Paris: Friday 6 November, 16:00-18:15
    Tokyo: Saturday 7 November, 00:00-02:15

Benefits:
Attendees will be able to:

Identify the situations where iccMAX can be used to address color management needs that cannot be handled in ICC v4.
Learn how to use iccMAX in their own implementations, including both research and commercial development.
Generate iccMAX profiles and apply them to device data, colorimetry, and spectral data.

Intended Audience: attendees should have basic knowledge and experience of color management with ICC v2 or v4, and a desire to understand the next-generation color management technology, iccMAX.

Course Description:
ICC’s iccMAX colour management technology was published as an ISO standard in February 2019 and is now a stable platform for development. iccMAX introduces many new features and capabilities; foremost among these is the move away from a fixed D50 colorimetric intermediate color space to an ability to connect profiles using any illuminant or observer for colorimetric data or spectral data in any form. ICC has provided a Reference Implementation which greatly simplifies the process of making profiles and applying them to data and images. This course introduces the new features that iccMAX adds to color management and provides detail on the most widely-used processing elements. It shows how to build profiles that incorporate these elements and how to connect profiles, either to other iccMAX profiles or to v2 or v4 profiles. It also shows how to define a sub-set of the new specification for a particular use case.

Philip Green is professor of colour imaging at the Colour and Visual Computing Laboratory, NTNU, Norway. He supervises PhD and master students and teaches courses on a range of color-related topics including cross-media color reproduction and advanced color management. Green has been technical secretary of the International Color Consortium since 2005.
