| Abstract from DBPedia | Color (American English) or colour (British English) is the visual perceptual property deriving from the spectrum of light interacting with the photoreceptor cells of the eyes. Color categories and physical specifications of color are associated with objects or materials based on their physical properties such as light absorption, reflection, or emission spectra. By defining a color space, colors can be identified numerically by their coordinates. Because perception of color stems from the varying spectral sensitivity of different types of cone cells in the retina to different parts of the spectrum, colors may be defined and quantified by the degree to which they stimulate these cells. These physical or physiological quantifications of color, however, do not fully explain the psychophysical perception of color appearance. Color science includes the perception of color by the eye and brain, the origin of color in materials, color theory in art, and the physics of electromagnetic radiation in the visible range (i.e. light).色（いろ）は、可視光の組成の差によって感覚質の差が認められる視知覚である色知覚、および、色知覚を起こす刺激である色刺激を指す。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Color) |
