As you can use the 3 spectral primary color to mix any color, you can mix any color using light and you could measure how much you used of each color to get your impression of a particular color (even better if you get shown a particular color and are asked to reproduce it by mixing)!. You repeat that for several colors!. Then you compare your results with that of a group of other people!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

everyone at a given point is asked which one is red points to the same thing!.
or may be something i never thought of!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
