One theory, deriving from Thomas Young and Hermann von Helmholtz, postulated trichromacy. Three retinal receptors, one sensitive in the short-wavelength or blue-appearing region of the spectrum (SWS), one in the middle-wavelength or green-appearing region (MWS), and one in the longwavelength or red-appearing region (LWS), combine their mechanisms of action to give rise to the gamut of color sensations (see Wyszecki & Stiles 1982).
