A groundbreaking experiment by scientists involved using laser light to stimulate a specific type of cone cell in the retina, resulting in the perception of a new colour beyond the typical human-visible spectrum. Participants who took part in the experiment reported a vibrant bluey-green hue that they described as being more intense and saturated than any colour they had previously experienced. This research not only expands our understanding of colour perception but also opens new avenues for sensory experiences and visual technologies.
Scientists have successfully activated specific cone cells in the retina using laser light, creating perceptions of a new colour that exceeds the visible spectrum for humans.
Participants described this newfound colour as a bluey-green hue, but emphasized its intensity and saturation were unmatched by any real-world colour they've encountered.
