  2. Visible spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum

    The spectral colors from red to violet are divided by the notes of the musical scale, starting at D. The circle completes a full octave, from D to D. Newton's circle places red, at one end of the spectrum, next to violet, at the other. This reflects the fact that non-spectral purple colors are observed when red and violet light are mixed.

  3. Color mixing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_mixing

    The most common additive color model is the RGB color model, which uses three primary colors: red, green, and blue. This model is the basis of most color displays. Some modern displays are Multi-primary color displays, which have 4-6 primaries (RGB, plus cyan, yellow and/or magenta) in order to increase the size of the color gamut. For all ...

  4. Periwinkle (color) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periwinkle_(color)

    Periwinkle is a color in the blue and violet family. Its name is derived from the lesser periwinkle or myrtle herb ( Vinca minor ) which bears flowers of the same color. The color periwinkle is also called lavender blue and light blue violet . [ 2 ]

  5. Eye color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_color

    The irises of human eyes exhibit a wide spectrum of colours. Eye color is a polygenic phenotypic trait determined by two factors: the pigmentation of the eye's iris [1] [2] and the frequency-dependence of the scattering of light by the turbid medium in the stroma of the iris.

    This can only be used as a very rough guide, for instance if a narrow range of wavelengths within the band 647–700 nm is absorbed, then the blue and green receptors will be fully stimulated, making cyan, and the red receptor will be partially stimulated, diluting the cyan to a greyish hue.

  7. List of color spaces and their uses - Wikipedia

    RGB (red, green, blue) describes the chromaticity component of a given color, when excluding luminance. RGB itself is not a color space, it is a color model. There are many different color spaces that employ this color model to describe their chromaticities because the R/G/B chromaticities are one facet for reproducing color in CRT & LED displays.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode

    An RGB LED projecting red, green, and blue onto a surface Mixing red, green, and blue sources to produce white light needs electronic circuits to control the blending of the colors. Since LEDs have slightly different emission patterns, the color balance may change depending on the angle of view, even if the RGB sources are in a single package ...
