Color

  • Dichromacy
    Dichromacy (di meaning "two" and chroma meaning "color") is the state of having two types of functioning color receptors, called cone cells, in the eyes.
  • Gamut
    In color reproduction, including computer graphics and photography, the gamut, or color gamut /ˈɡæmət/, is a certain complete subset of colors.
  • Web colors
    Web colors are colors used in displaying web pages, and the methods for describing and specifying those colors.
  • Blue
    Blue is the colour between violet and green on the optical spectrum of visible light.
  • Color management
    In digital imaging systems, color management is the controlled conversion between the color representations of various devices, such as image scanners, digital cameras, monitors, TV screens, film printers, computer printers, offset presses, and corresponding media.
  • Black
    Black is the darkest color, the result of the absence or complete absorption of light.
  • White
    White is an achromatic color, a color without hue.
  • Monochromacy
    Monochromacy (mono meaning one and chromo color) is among organisms or machine the ability to distinguish only one single frequency of the electromagnetic light spectrum.
  • Color blindness
    Color blindness, also known as color vision deficiency, is the decreased ability to see color or differences in color.
  • Photodegradation
    Photo-degradation is the alteration of materials by light.
  • Eye color
    Eye color or eye colour is a polygenic phenotypic character determined by two distinct factors: the pigmentation of the eye's iris and the frequency-dependence of the scattering of light by the turbid medium in the stroma of the iris.
  • Colorfulness
    Colorfulness, chroma, pure color and saturation are related but distinct concepts in colorimetry and color theory, referring to the perceived intensity of a specific color.
  • Purkinje effect
    The Purkinje effect (sometimes called the Purkinje shift or dark adaptation) is the tendency for the peak luminance sensitivity of the human eye to shift toward the blue end of the color spectrum at low illumination levels.
  • Monochrome
    Monochrome describes paintings, drawings, design, or photographs in one color or values of one color.
  • Film colorization
    Film colorization is any process that adds color to black-and-white, sepia, or other monochrome moving-picture images.
  • Color vision
    Color vision is the ability of an organism or machine to distinguish objects based on the wavelengths (or frequencies) of the light they reflect, emit, or transmit.
  • Colorimetry
    Colorimetry (American English) or Colourimetry (British English; see spelling differences) is "the science and technology used to quantify and describe physically the human color perception.
  • International Color Consortium
    The International Color Consortium was formed in 1993 by eight vendors in order to create an open, vendor-neutral color management system which would function transparently across all operating systems and software packages.
  • Color motion picture film
    Color motion picture film refers both to unexposed color photographic film in a format suitable for use in a motion picture camera, and to finished motion picture film, ready for use in a projector, which bears images in color.
  • Color television
    Color television is a television transmission technology that includes information on the color of the picture, so the video image can be displayed in color on the television set.
  • Language of flowers
    The language of flowers, sometimes called floriography, is a means of cryptological communication through the use or arrangement of flowers.
  • Theory of Colours
    Theory of Colours (original German title Zur Farbenlehre) is a book by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe about the poet's views on the nature of colours and how these are perceived by humans.
  • Color psychology
    Color psychology is the study of hues as a determinant of human behavior.
  • Green
    Green is the color between blue and yellow on the spectrum of visible light.
  • Red
    Red is the color at the longer-wavelengths end of the spectrum of visible light next to orange, at the opposite end from violet.
  • Magenta
    Magenta (/məˈdʒɛntə/) is variously defined as a purplish-red, reddish-purple, or a mauvish–crimson color.
  • Grey
    Grey (British English) or gray (American English) is an intermediate color between black and white.
  • International Colour Day
    An international colour day (ICD) has been considered as appropriate since colour is, thanks to visual perception, one of the most influential phenomena in people’s lives and also one of the channels that contributes most greatly to the perception of reality.
  • Colourant
    A colourant (British spelling) or colorant (American spelling) is something added to something else to cause a change in colour.
  • Light
    Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
  • White point
    A white point (often referred to as reference white or target white in technical documents) is a set of tristimulus values or chromaticity coordinates that serve to define the color "white" in image capture, encoding, or reproduction.
  • Eigengrau
    Eigengrau (German: "intrinsic gray", lit. "own gray"; pronounced [ˈʔaɪ̯gn̩ˌgʁaʊ̯]), also called Eigenlicht ("intrinsic light"), dark light, or brain gray, is the uniform dark gray background that many people report seeing in the absence of light.
  • Spectrum
    A spectrum (plural spectra or spectrums) is a condition that is not limited to a specific set of values but can vary infinitely within a continuum.
  • Oxblood
    The first use of the term oxblood as a color name in the English language dates back to 1695–1705.
  • Color scheme
    In color theory, a color scheme is the choice of colors used in design for a range of media.
  • Colour centre
    The colour centre is a region in the brain primarily responsible for visual perception and cortical processing of colour signals received by the eye, which ultimately results in colour vision.
  • ColorZilla
    ColorZilla is a Mozilla extension that assists web developers and graphic designers with color related and other tasks.
  • Colourlovers
    Colourlovers (styled COLOURlovers) is a social network service, blog, and international creative community that focuses on color inspiration and color trends for both personal and professional creative projects.
