  2. Color temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_temperature

    In practice, color temperature is most meaningful for light sources that correspond somewhat closely to the color of some black body, i.e., light in a range going from red to orange to yellow to white to bluish white. Although the concept of correlated color temperature extends the definition to any visible light, the color temperature of a ...

  3. f.lux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F.lux

    A screen in F.lux's "darkroom mode" On installation, the user can choose a location based on geographic coordinates, a ZIP code, or the name of a location. The program then automatically calibrates the device display's color temperature to account for time of day, based on sunrise and sunset at the chosen location. At sunset, it will gradually ...

  4. Sodium vapor process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_vapor_process

    An actor is filmed performing in front of a white screen that is lit with powerful sodium vapor lights. This light has a narrow color spectrum, that falls neatly into a chromatic notch between the various color sensitivity layers of color film. In this way the yellow color does not register on the red, green, or blue layers. [5]

  5. Sodium-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium-vapor_lamp

    When the lamp is first started, it emits a dim red/pink light to warm the sodium metal; within a few minutes as the sodium metal vaporizes, the emission becomes the common bright yellow. These lamps produce a virtually monochromatic light averaging a 589.3 nm wavelength (actually two dominant spectral lines very close together at 589.0 and 589. ...

  6. Standard illuminant - Wikipedia

    The second vector (S 1) corresponds to yellow–blue variation (along the locus), accounting for changes in the correlated color temperature due to proportion of indirect to direct sunlight. [9] The third vector (S 2 ) corresponds to pink–green variation (across the locus) caused by the presence of water in the form of vapor and haze.

    The yellow light's dilemma zone is one of the most universal problems. It forces drivers to choose between two dangerous possible risks – being rear ended because of stopping too quickly, or ...

    Green and yellow light. The Pyrearinus candelarius bugs are dark brown insects with large eyes and yellowish-brown pronota. They’re black in the middle and feature small teeth that point backward.

  9. Primary color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_color

    Philipp Otto Runge (the Romantic German painter) firmly believed in the theory of red, yellow and blue as the primary colors [98]: 87 (again without distinguishing light color and colorant). His color sphere was ultimately described in an essay titled Farben-Kugel [ 98 ] (color ball) published by Goethe in 1810.
