The human eye perceives color using three types of cones, but no natural light can stimulate just the the cones associated with medium-wavelength light in the visible spectrum. A new tool ...

The artist-provocateur reverse-engineered the blue-green shade called ‘olo.’ Now you can buy it as an acrylic paint.

Researchers have developed new contact lenses that enable vision in the near-infrared range, and they could restore color ...

Color space is the standard way of charting ... via Wikimedia Commons But there are colors even within the visible spectrum that are impossible to actually perceive for trichromatic humans.

An sRGB display simply cannot reproduce any color that lies outside of the triangle. A larger triangular area means that the display’s gamut covers a greater percentage of the visible spectrum.

Contact lenses and eyeglasses could one day enable people to see beyond the natural visible light spectrum. Eyewear equipped ...

Scientists have developed revolutionary contact lenses that grant wearers the ability to see infrared light—a feat humans ...

To understand where black falls on the color spectrum, first consider what light actually is. Light is radiation visible to the human eye Light is energy called electromagnetic radiation.

New infrared contact lenses allow people to see in the dark, even with their eyes closed. They enable "super-vision" by ...

such as color, are size dependent, and they start to exhibit quantum properties. This technology has been really well developed, but only in the visible spectrum, leaving untapped opportunities ...

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have developed new contact lenses that give people infrared vision, allowing them ...

Neuroscientists and materials scientists have created contact lenses that enable infrared vision in both humans and mice by converting infrared light into visible light. Unlike infrared night vision ...
