Described as a kind of blue-green, the new color—named “olo”—can only be seen using lasers to manipulate certain ...

Using an experimental technique called "Oz," researchers stimulated the human retina such that people saw a brand-new color.

The newly described method and prototype machine is called the Oz Vision System, (a not-so-subtle nod to reaching somewhere ...

Purple is a combination of wavelengths from opposite extremes of the spectrum, which technically deosn’t make any sense, but ...

However, a new possibility has emerged: breaking those limits and unlocking a color previously unseen by human eyes. James ...

In an innovative discovery that defied centuries of colour theory, scientists revealed that purple isn’t a real colour at all—but a clever illusion created by the brain. According to new research, ...

They're your eyes, and they receive signals that fall in the range of visible ... spectrum. Here's a tour that begins with radio waves and takes you through microwaves, infrared radiation, light ...

This range of colors is all that the human eye is capable of seeing—our "visible light spectrum." But what happens when waves get even longer or shorter? Looking at a chart, one quickly realizes ...

Scientists at UC Berkeley have developed a groundbreaking technique that allows humans to see a color they’ve never experienced before. This method — dubbed “Oz” — enables people to perceive a unique ...

Researchers have discovered ‘olo’, a colour outside the natural visual spectrum, using advanced laser technology. In a ...

The sensor on your digital camera picks up a lot more than just the light that’s visible to the human eye. Camera manufacturers go out of their way to reduce this to just the visible spectrum in ...
