Abstract

Three samples of micro-encapsulated thermochromic liquid crystals with different active temperature ranges were calibrated using a hue-based color decomposition system. A dimensionless temperature was defined that collapsed data from all three samples to a single calibration curve. For one sample, this dimensionless temperature also collapsed calibrations taken under significantly different lighting conditions. Severely off-axis primary lighting produced a hue-temperature curve that was quite linear. All calibration tests were performed using commercially available liquid crystals and imaging equipment.
