On the Historical Misunderstanding That “Classes of Cones” Exist on the Retinal Surface – Focusing Now on the Non-Existence of “Green Sensitive Cones”

by Gerald Huth on December 13, 2005

  • This BBC video above "Colorful Notions" from 1985 first summarizes the classical theory of color vision and follows with the ideas of Edwin Land who personally explains and demonstrates his experiments. It can be viewed as an introduction to this work.

  • Dr. Huth has submitted a U.S. Patent Application “SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC STRUCTURE COMPRISNG QUANTIZED-INTERACTIVE SENSITIVE NANOCELLS” based on the findings of this work.
  • Technology exists to fabricate a precise silicon replica of the imaging area of the retina that would have the spatial distribution of light detecting sites defined by this work. Dr. Huth believes that such a passive chip, surgically implanted in contact with the plane of receptor outer segments, might aid in reversing the course of the condition of macular degeneration
