The internet has been debating since the last two months about the color of this dress. Three quarters of the people in a poll say that the dress is gold and white, but a minority say that the dress is black and blue. Some people claimed that they saw it changing color (sometimes gold and white, and sometimes blue and black).
WHY THIS DRESS LOOKS DIFFERENT COLORS TO DIFFERENT PEOPLE?
This article interests me, because it is astonishing how it drastically changes into such different colors. I think that it is extremely impressive how our brain interprets things differently. We have all been wondering about how this changes occur.
Color Illusions are images that trick the human eye, because of the surrounding colors that lead to incorrect interpretation of the color.
Also, the way each one of us interprets light might lead to the incorrect interpretation of color.
Here are some examples of color illusions:
Don`t let your eyes trick you :()
- The color of the surface of A and B is the same. The way that the light hits surface B makes it look brighter, but if you cover with your finger the place where both meet,you´ll see the same color, because you are covering the light that tricks you.
2. In this color cube, believe it or not, the pieces A, B, and C are the same color, but all the colors, the shadow, and the light affect the image, making them look as if they were different.
3. In the chess sets both are of the same color, but what makes them look different is the background.
4. Both are the same color, but the light and the shadow makes them look different.
#ScienceBehindTheDress
The contexts and surroundings influence our perception of the color. Since we are so close to the dress, we cant see the surroundings,because of this, the brain makes its own perception.
- Team White and Gold! If people interpret the dress in a place lit natural blue light or daylight, near a window with a clear blue sky, will see it gold and white. This happens, because the brain tries to remove the blue, because it is interpreted as a possible shadow.
- Team Black and Blue! If people interpret the dress in a place lit up by an artificial light (maybe yellow light) the brain will interpret the gold as a reflection of the black and the blue wont be affected.
Anyway it is also a personal perception and depends also where you see the image. Maybe in a different screen you may see another total different color than in the one you are used to see it.
