A team of researchers from the University of California in Berkeley and Washington University He gave a discovery Which redefines the limits of human visual perception: A new type of colors called “olo”That was created by An activation subject to controlling individual cells From the retina.
The result, Posted in Science AdvancesRow High -resolution optical system called oZWhich allows stimulation in isolation Human eye conesCells responsible for the visualization of the color.
What is “Olu” and why is a new color?
Under normal circumstances, L, M and S contempt (sensitive to different waves of light lengths) It is activated simultaneously To overlap its spectra. However, Oz system Use of laser microdosis To activate the cones only, which Leading to a visual signal Unpublished that the brain is explained in a new color, outside a series of natural human vision.
This color is called “Olo”, described by participants as the name “Gray Green” or “Teal” toneBut with the maximum saturation that cannot be cloned by traditional light.
How was the presence of “Olo”?
Scientists have conducted color conjugation experiences Check the presence of the new color. He did not achieve topics Run Olo with any standard colorUnless they add white light, indicating that it is a phenomenon outside the usual visual spectrum.
Only five people participated in the experiment, one of whom was Professor Ren Nug, who said that Olu was “more saturated than any color that can be seen in the real world.”
Technology behind Oz
The OZ system combines many advanced technologies:
- Adaptive optics
- High -speed laser examination
- Real eye monitoring in time
These tools allow Direct light pulses accurately Micromovimients from the eye. The result is a selective stimulation of individual cones in the retina.
In visual tests, the participants also enables to distinguish between models and movements, however Only when stimulation was accurate. Any change caused the color visualization of the breaking of the natural spectrum of the laser.
What is “space space”?
The discovery introduces a new concept called space space, which depends on Individually generating colors treat eye receptorsInstead of mixing the wavelengths as in the RGB screens.
This approach represents a radical change in the way The color can be understood and reproduced.
Possible applications
Although the OZ system is now operating in a small field of vision and under experimental conditions, its potential applications include:
- Advanced virtual reality
- Optical rehabilitation in people with Dalonia
- Neurological pharmaceutical studies
- Developing micro visual technologies
