Considering the Spyder2 is $149 at Amazon, and furthermore the Pantone
(Gretag) Huey is only $79... the only point a Do It Yourself monitor
colorimeter would be educational.
However a DIY reflective spectro with XY table would be most welcome :)
I'm sure the parts list would add up to less than $500, for a device
that usually sells over $2500. And you could do a large aperture (and
large table size) one for wide-format (billboard) printers, for which
the only current solution is the Barbieri at over $8000 I believe.
Probably it'd be slow, but the educational experience on that one
would be really matched with real savings. A great project for a
university!
