ICCA - International Centre for Color Analysis is a joint project between the Department of Computer Science and the Department of Physics. The aims of the project is to develope the methods for accurate color analysis and measurement, to train the experts in color science, and to transfer the knowledge in color science to the industry. The international cooperation with the color groups in Japan and USA is also one of the main scopes of the project. The cooperative universities in Japan are Chiba University, Saitama University, and Toyohashi University of Technology. In USA the cooperative partner is Munsell Color Science Laboratory in Rochester Institute of Technology and in Europe the cooperative partners are Linköping University, Sweden and the University of Derby, UK.
