A new study published in the June Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows a new mathematical model that could become the foundation of human color perception theory.

Professor A. Kimball Romney’s research led to this mathematical visualization of cone photo receptor sensitivities. In theory, this visualization is the operational key to creating uniform, high quality color in a variety of fields.

The new model yields a 99.4% match.
