Abstract: A computer implemented color management system and method are disclosed. The system comprises a color data repository encoding data indexing links on items according to a predetermined color classification scheme and a processor configured to execute computer program code for executing a color management system, including computer program code configured to provide a user interface configured to receive a user query and provide data from the color data repository in dependence on the user query, computer program code configured to provide a plurality of content interfaces. Each content interface is configured to link a respective remote content data repository storing data on items to the item's respective entry in the color data repository and upon presentation of a new item by the respective remote content data repository to classify the new item according to the predetermined color classification scheme and index a link to the new item in the color data repository according to the classification.

Abstract: A computer implemented color space encoding system, encoder, decoder, method and data signal are disclosed.

Abstract: A portable color measurement device 10 is described. The device 10 has a body 20 including a light source 30 and a sensor 40. The body 20 includes a measurement zone 21 to accommodate, within the body 20, an element 100 to be measured for color. The light source 30 is configured to emit light along a path within the body 20 to the sensor 40. The measurement zone 21 is substantially in the path. The portable color measurement device is configured to measure properties of an accommodated element 100 in dependence on one or more outputs of the sensor 40.
