Remark: If the PDF vector graphic output is magnified by for example 400% then the colorimetric
data within the 10 different hue planes are readable and can be studied.
For more information about the use of colour in Information Technology and in many standard
groups see the many papers presented at a BAM-DIN-Workshop on Image Technology in 2007.

ISO/TC159/WG2 “Ergonomics for people with special requirements” has developed technical
report TR22411 which is now in printing in ISO. The report contains data on a number of
age-related visual functions and methods how to use them, a part of which are those collected
by CIE TC1-54. After the completion of the report, TC159/WG2 has just started to work on
the 2 nd edition of the TR to increase more useful data in the areas that have not been covered
by the first version of TR22411. Meanwhile, standards on accessible design are being
developed in Sub-committees (SC4 and SC5) in TC159 the contents of which being stemmed
from the TR22411. Some other actions are being taken to promote accessible design in
ISO/TC159, for which a new strategic working group has just been developed.
