LAB Color
For LAB Color we have a term and definition in Computer Technology.
Lab Color (Computer Technology) 
In 1931 (!), the Commission Internationale d'Eclairage (CIE) came up with a color model that displays every color perceived by the human eye. In 1976, this model was updated and refined, in order to create the CIE Lab color system. Unlike RGB colors that are screen-dependent and CMYK colors that vary with printer, ink and paper characteristics, CIE Lab colors are device-independent. Therefore, the visual characteristics of these colors remain consistent on monitors, printers and scanners.
