Slide 35 & 36 of 52

Our shading model is appropriate for a range of object colors.

A concern we had was that adding hue variation across an object would interfere with giving an object color name, such as "green" or "yellow". We find this is no the case. Both traditional shading and the new tone based shading are applied to a set of spheres. All of the spheres also include edge lines and highlights.

With the new shading, objects retain their "color name" so colors can still be used to differentiate objects like countries on a political map, but the intensities used do not interfere with the clear perception of the black edge lines and white highlights.
