Systems and methods for color selection are provided. A user device displays room types on a display, receives a room type selection indicating a particular room type, displays types of feelings, and receives a type of feeling selection indicating a particular type of feeling. The user device accesses a lookup table that associates the room types and types of feelings with paint colors such that each possible combination of room type and type of feeling is associated with a subset of paint colors. The user device determines the associated subset of paint colors in the lookup table for the combination of the particular room type and the particular type of feeling and displays the associated subset of paint colors as recommended paint colors for the combination of the particular room type and the particular type of feeling on the display of the user device.

Provided is a change degree deriving device including a receiving unit that receives an image obtained by capturing an object and a known color body, the known color body including plural color samples each of which has a known colorimetric value, and a position checking section used to check a relative position of the known color body with respect to the object, a conversion rule generating unit that generates a conversion rule used to convert a color of the image received by the receiving unit into a numerical value in a device-independent color space, based on the color samples included in the image received by the receiving unit, and a converting unit that converts a color of the object included in the image received by the receiving unit into a numerical value in the device-independent color space according to the conversion rule.

Provided is a change degree deriving device including a receiving unit that receives an image obtained by capturing an object and a known color body including plural color samples, the plural color samples including deterioration-series colors among colors used for the object, and each of the color samples having a known colorimetric value, a conversion rule generating unit that generates a conversion rule used to convert a color of the image received by the receiving unit into a colorimetric value in a device-independent color space based on the color samples included in the image received by the receiving unit, and a converting unit that converts a color of the object included in the image received by the receiving unit into a colorimetric value in the device-independent color space according to the conversion rule.

The disclosure is related to a décor harmony service (DHS) that facilitates mapping of colors from a color palette to decor accessories in a setting, e.g., a room, such that the décor accessories, when arranged together, appear harmonious to a user. For example, using harmony-distribution rules, the DHS maps a set of décor accessories occupying “60%” of the area of a room to a main color of a color palette, a second set of décor accessories occupying “30%” to a feature color and a third set of décor accessories occupying “10%” to an accent color. The DHS generates a representation of the room, e.g., an image of the room, with the décor accessories having the assigned colors. The DHS facilitates a user to use the generated image for finding and purchasing décor products that match with a décor accessory in the generated image.

An information processing device includes a processor configured to acquire image data including color information, acquire color information of a formed image, the formed image being an image formed on a recording medium on a basis of the image data, acquire light transmittance information expressing a degree of light transmittance of an image-carrying medium, the image-carrying medium being the recording medium on which the formed image is formed, and associate first color information, second color information, and the light transmittance information with each other, the first color information being the color information included in the image data and the second color information being the color information of the formed image.

Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are related to a color target and methods and systems for estimating a spectral reflectance of the color target based on an image of the color target. The color target can include a substrate having a target surface, a sample window formed in the substrate and defining perimeter within which a sample surface is disposed, and one or more filters disposed the sample surface. The one or more filters are configured to cover a first portion of the sample surface, while leaving a second portion of the sample surface uncovered.
