However, the green primary of Adobe RGB is more saturated than the equivalent in sRGB, and therefore yields a larger gamut. [63] Otherwise, choice of color space is largely arbitrary and depends on the utility to a specific application. [1]
James Clerk Maxwell, with his color top that he used for investigation of color vision and additive color. Additive color or additive mixing is a property of a color model that predicts the appearance of colors made by coincident component lights, i.e. the perceived color can be predicted by summing the numeric representations of the component ...
