Abstract
The appearance of a surface depends on four main appearance attributes, namely color, gloss, texture, and translucency. Gloss is an important attribute that people use to understand surface appearance, right after color. In the past decades, extensive research has been conducted in the field of gloss and gloss perception, with different aims to understand the complex nature of gloss appearance. This paper reviews the research conducted on the topic of gloss and gloss perception and discusses the results and potential future research on gloss and gloss perception. Our primary focus in this review is on research in the field of gloss and the setup of associated psychophysical experiments. However, due to the industrial and application-oriented nature of this review, the primary focus is the gloss of dielectric materials, a critical aspect in various industries. This review not only summarizes the existing research but also highlights potential avenues for future research in the pursuit of a more comprehensive understanding of gloss perception.
