  2. Color model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_model

    In color science, a color model is an abstract mathematical model describing the way colors can be represented as tuples of numbers, typically as three or four values or color components. When this model is associated with a precise description of how the components are to be interpreted (viewing conditions, etc.), taking account of visual ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LMS_color_space

    An early emulation of dichromats were produced by Brettel et al. 1997 and was rated favorably by actual patients. An example of a state-of-the-art method is Machado et al. 2009. [20] A related application is making color filters for color-blind people to more easily notice differences in color, a process known as daltonization. [21]

  4. Cone cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cone_cell

    The CIE 1931 color space is an often-used model of spectral sensitivities of the three cells of an average human. [8] [9] Some non-human animals have different numbers of cone types (see Color_vision#Color_vision_in_nonhumans).

  5. Color appearance model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_appearance_model

    A uniform color space (UCS) is a color model that seeks to make the color-making attributes perceptually uniform, i.e. identical spatial distance between two colors equals identical amount of perceived color difference. A CAM under a fixed viewing condition results in a UCS; a UCS with a modeling of variable viewing conditions results in a CAM.

  6. Tetrachromacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrachromacy

    The four pigments in a bird's cone cells (in this example, estrildid finches) extend the range of color vision into the ultraviolet. [1]Tetrachromacy (from Greek tetra, meaning "four" and chroma, meaning "color") is the condition of possessing four independent channels for conveying color information, or possessing four types of cone cell in the eye.

  7. Natural Color System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_Color_System

    The Natural Colour System (NCS) is a proprietary perceptual color model. It is based on the color opponency hypothesis of color vision, first proposed by German physiologist Ewald Hering. [1] The current version of the NCS was developed by the Swedish Colour Centre Foundation, from 1964 onwards.

  8. Trichromacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichromacy

    Trichromatic color vision is the ability of humans and some other animals to see different colors, mediated by interactions among three types of color-sensing cone cells. The trichromatic color theory began in the 18th century, when Thomas Young proposed that color vision was a result of three different photoreceptor cells .
