Che Shen introduces some of the key products displayed at their booth, such as the C410 Series spectral meter. This device measures color information, luminance, and chromaticity values with high speed and precision. Calibration is a crucial aspect of maintaining accuracy, with Konica Minolta recommending annual calibrations performed at their New Jersey headquarters. This ensures that their instruments provide reliable measurements year after year.
The discussion also covers the difference between camera meters and color meters. Camera meters, like the 2D camera meter, measure in terms of field of view, while spot meters measure single points. Despite their advanced capabilities, Konica Minolta's equipment is described as reasonably priced compared to higher-end models like the CS3000, which offers the highest accuracy and costs less than a Tesla Model 3.
One of the standout features of the CS3000 is its ability to provide spectral information across the visible range (380 nm to 780 nm). This is in contrast to color meters that only offer three-dimensional color information. The CS3000 is praised as Konica Minolta's most precise instrument, although no device can be 100% accurate. Calibration for such devices involves using a traceable light source to ensure precision.
Che Shen also demonstrates a handheld device for measuring the color of surfaces from a distance, adding to the versatility of Konica Minolta's product range. This handheld device, called the color appearance measurement tool, is used for non-luminous surfaces like clothing and pigments. It features multi-angle measurement capabilities, unlike some other devices that measure from a single angle.
On the other side of the booth, Konica Minolta showcases an automated testing setup that integrates their devices with XYZ movement stages. This setup demonstrates how their instruments can be used in automated production lines to measure and ensure display quality efficiently. Such automation highlights the practical applications of Konica Minolta's technology in real-world manufacturing environments.
Che Shen explains that Konica Minolta's main headquarters are in Japan, with a significant presence in the United States based in New Jersey. Che Shen himself is located in the Bay Area, overseeing customers on the West Coast. This geographical spread allows Konica Minolta to provide localized support and technical assistance, ensuring their customers can optimize the performance of their displays.
Finally, the conversation emphasizes Konica Minolta's commitment to customer satisfaction and product excellence. The company regularly visits customers to provide technical support and demonstrations, helping them achieve the highest quality in their displays. This hands-on approach ensures that Konica Minolta remains a trusted partner in the display manufacturing industry, known for their precision instruments and dedicated customer service.
