Simple visual descriptions of the dimensions of color. | ||
COLORCUBE. The model and form that inspired a theory, website and screensaver family. A fun and easy way visualize color in a three dimensional space that makes sense in the computer world. | |||
Chroma. Watch the "chroma rings" begin at the center of the 'Cube and expand to the very outside edges where chromaticity is at its peak. | |||
Hue. Like the blades of a turbine, these "hue fins" spin through the colors of the rainbow. The patterns created by these planes are not only captivating but also very harmonious. | |||
Luminance. Imagine Newton's Color Wheel mapped to a 3D COLORCUBE. Voila, the concept of luminance! See these "colorful bowties" twirl their way in and out of your screen. | |||
Saturation. Discover the COLORCUBE at full saturation and the infinite number of "saturation boxes" inside of it. Each one illustrates a different level of purity or richness for the colors upon it. | |||
Value. If the world contained only black and white, every color would still have its place on the grayscale. Would you believe that the colors on each "value slice" is equal to the same gray? | |||
Color Wheel. An elegant, simple model of color used in schools to teach color. Though beautiful and easy to understand, it is only partially suitable for computer and digital applications. | |||
RGB Planes. Televisions and computer monitors are examples of devices that are capable of displaying many colors with only three primary inputs: red, green and blue (RGB). |
