A Review on Color Gamut and the Methods of Gamut Boundaries’ Explanation

Advances in science and technology in recent years have affected the quality of human life. Devices such as televisions, printers, mobile phones, monitors, and projectors are good examples of these advances that have brought about a tremendous change in human life. An essential characteristic in the output of these devices is their color gamut, which refers to the range of colors that they can accurately reproduce. In general, the color gamut is the range of colors that a device can provide and depends on several factors. It is noticeable that the color gamut is usually a specific subset of the three-dimensional color spaces and could be introduced over the colorimetric axes. In the present report, studies and researches on the importance of color gamut in printers, monitors, natural dyes used in wool and cotton fibers dyeing process, and solar cells have been investigated. Finally, the algorithms for the definition of gamut boundaries, surface creation, triangulation methods, and application of the Delaunay triangulation method have been studied.
