Normal human color vision is trichromatic, which is enabled by three classes of cone cells (L, M & S). Each cone class contains a slightly different photopsin with a different spectral sensitivity.
The three coordinates of CIELAB represent the lightness of the color (L* = 0 yields black and L* = 100 indicates white), its position between red and green (a*, where negative values indicate green and positive values indicate red) and its position between yellow and blue (b*, where negative values indicate blue and positive values indicate yellow).
The first self-assessment based on Marston's DISC theory was created in 1956 by Walter Clarke, an industrial psychologist. In 1956, Clarke created the Activity Vector Analysis, a checklist of adjectives on which he asked people to indicate descriptions that were accurate about themselves. [6]
Different kinds of Secchi disks. A marine style on the left and the freshwater version on the right. The Secchi depth is reached when the reflectance equals the intensity of light backscattered from the water. 1.7 divided into this depth in metres yields an attenuation coefficient (also called an extinction coefficient), for the available light averaged over the Secchi disk depth.
The Ishihara test is a color vision test for detection of red–green color deficiencies.It was named after its designer, Shinobu Ishihara, a professor at the University of Tokyo, who first published his tests in 1917.
The Farnsworth–Munsell 100 Hue Color Vision test is a color vision test often used to test for color blindness.The system was developed by Dean Farnsworth in the 1940s and it tests the ability to isolate and arrange minute differences in various color targets with constant value and chroma that cover all the visual hues described by the Munsell color system.

As most definitions of color difference are distances within a color space, the standard means of determining distances is the Euclidean distance.If one presently has an RGB (red, green, blue) tuple and wishes to find the color difference, computationally one of the easiest is to consider R, G, B linear dimensions defining the color space.
Marquis reagent was first discovered in 1896 [2] and described by the Russian (Estonian) pharmacologist, Eduard Markus (1871–1944) (Russian: Эдуард Маркус) [3] in his magister dissertation in 1896; [4] and named after him, [5] and was tested for the first time at the University of Dorpat.
