![]() ![]() We can produce hues at their purest when one of the 3 dots is 255, one is 0 and the "middle" (third) one can have any value. Hue assigns distinct numbers for colors like yellow, orange, red, etc. Interestingly, brightness is not defined from 0 to 255, but from 0 to 1 or 0 to 100%.Īnother property of a color is called hue. This is an example of changing the brightness of a color, one of the three properties every color has. Once R is 0, the resulting color is black, since no dot is emitting any light. If we want a darker red, we just lower the value of R. To see one of the primary colors, for example red, R gets set to 255 and the G and B to zero, which gives the brightest red possible. ![]() One dot can have a value between 0 (emitting nothing) and 255 (or 0xFF in hexadecimal) emitting at full strength. Of course, the "strength" (brightness) of these colors are rather limited when compared to other light sources such the sun.Įach color is defined by how much light each of the 3 dots emits. With RGB pixels, a monitor can produce most colors a human eye can differentiate. The human eye has three different kinds of receptors for colors and the colors (hue) of R, G and B are chosen to match well with these receptors, which happens to be the lime green and not the "normal" green. However, here is already the first misunderstanding, because in actual fact, G is not Colors.Green but Colors.Lime.
