ColourSpace ZRO is a low-cost license version of ColourSpace for Manual Display Calibration and Verification.
It's expected to be the leading solution in consumer/professional level free calibration solutions with a modern interface and simple to use as the first choice to the calibration journey.
The typical problem of free calibration solutions (like HCFR) is that they are not available for up-to-date guides, so while the software is fine, it will complex in operation for the average users with limited experience in calibration.
ColourSpace will always have up-to-date guides, an on-line interactive manual, and videos to explain the features, settings, graphs, and necessary details for new users.
ColourSpace ZRO will support the following measurement instruments:
