>A new study corrects an important error in the 3D mathematical space
developed by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Erwin Schrödinger and
others, and used by scientists and industry for more than 100 years to
describe how your eye distinguishes one color from another. The
research has the potential to boost scientific data visualizations,
improve TVs and recalibrate the textile and paint
industries.</a></div>

<div>This visualization captures the 3D mathematical space used to map
human color perception. A new mathematical representation has found
that the line segments representing the distance between widely
separated colors don't add up correctly using the previously accepted
geometry. The research contradicts long-held assumptions and will
improve a variety of practical applications of color theory.</div>
