Colour vision: A patchwork of cones
Heinz Wässle1
If you look closely at the screen of a colour television, you'll see a precise mosaic of red, green and blue pixels. At a normal viewing distance, however, our eyes cannot resolve these individual pixels and, depending on their relative intensities, we perceive thousands of different colours.
- Heinz Wässle is at the Max Planck Institut füsr Hirnforschung, Deutschordenstrasse 46, D-60528 Frankfurt/Main, Germany.
