cesias


Three types of objects in the world:

emisive

reflective

transmissive

Reflective and transmissive objects are two forms of absorbent objects.


The stimulus for color can be produced by primary sources (objects that emit light) or by secondary sources (objects that reflect or transmit the light coming from another source).


secondary sources

primary sources


From the physical point of view, an object may absorb light, and the non-absorbed portion can be either reflected by the material, or transmitted trough it. Both reflection and transmission may occur regularly (specularly) or diffusely.


diffuse reflection (matte)

absorption (dark or black) diffuse transmission (traslucent)

regular reflection (mirrorlike) regular transmission (transparent)



The three variables of cesia —darkness, permeability, diffusivity— with the two extremes (100% and 0%) and an intermediate case (50%).


Permeability 100%


Permeability 0%
