Abstract
In this study, a novel gonio-hyperspectral imaging system based on light-emitting diodes for the analysis of automotive coatings was validated colorimetrically and spectrally from 368 to 1309 nm. A total of 30 pearlescent, 30 metallic, and 30 solid real automotive coatings were evaluated with this system, the BYK-mac and X-Rite MA98 gonio-spectrophotometers, and also with the SPECTRO 320 spectrometer for further comparison. The results showed very precise correlations, especially in the visible range. In conclusion, this new system provides a deeper assessment of goniochromatic pigments than current approaches due to the expansion of the spectral range to the infrared.
