Hi I have a client that is asking me if it is possible to put high definition color onto his web page. He said he saw it at this site here
Is this possible?
 
The site looks like any other local TV station website to me...

Yeah that is what I was thinking too, and so I was just trying to figure out what this guy was talking about, I have never heard of adding High Definition color to a website, and was just trying to figure out if this is something for real or not?
 
Hi,
A far as I can find out, there is no such animal..Color is Color and its properties are based on the settings and capabilities of the client browser's workstation.
There are theoretical discussions about transmitting more color information to output devices than is possible with standard 3 channel color information coding, but I doubt that is what is meant by your client or that site:

Multispectral color technology: a way toward high-definition color image scanning and encoding
Bernhard Hill
Aachen Univ. of Technology (Germany)


Multispectral color image scanning and the transport of relevant spectral information up to output devices offer essential advantages compared to conventional three channel color reproduction. This is particularly true in open image communication systems which have to consider many different color reproduction technologies. The first part of the paper covers fundamental problems of three channel color image scanning. Afterwards, the basic ideas of a multispectral reproduction technology are presented to solve the problems. The multispectral scanner as a main part of the system is addressed in the next chapter. A major problem of multispectral technology is the encoding of the large amount of spectral data delivered by the scanner. A second important point with respect to the application of multispectral technology is compatibility with existing color systems using tristimulus color values. The paper present concepts for compatible and efficient spectral data encoding and discusses aspects of optimization strategies. The state of the art of multispectral technology and an outlook are given finally.
