Color Perception
·
The human eye is capable of detecting a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum called the visible light spectrum, which encompasses wavelengths ranging from about 380 to 750 nanometers. This varies from person to person, and other animals perceive different bands of this spectrum, which in some cases allows them to see or otherwise detect infrared and ultraviolet radiation, in addition to the colors most humans can detect.
