摘要

Abstract

RGB and CYMK are two major coloring schemes currently available for light colors and pigment colors

respectively. Both systems use letter-based color codes that require a large range of values to represent different colors. The problem is that these two systems are hard to use for manipulating any operations involving combinations of colors

and they lack the capacity for inter-changeability or unification. Based on prime number theory and Goldbach's conjecture

this study presents a universal color system (C

235

) using a number-based structure to encode

compute and unify all colors on a color wheel. The proposed C

235

system offers a unified representation for the efficient encoding and effective manipulation of color. It can be applied to designing a high-rate LCD system and colorizing objects with multiple attributes and DNA codons

opening the door to manipulating colors and lights for even broader applications.
