RGB Color Model for Digital Displays

This illustration explains the RGB (Red, Green, Blue) additive color model, which is the cornerstone of how digital displays like TVs, monitors, and smartphones generate a full spectrum of colors. Observe how the primary light colors—red, green, and blue—overlap to create secondary colors: yellow from red and green, magenta from red and blue, and cyan from green and blue. Where all three primary colors converge, pure white light is formed, showcasing the principle of additive light mixing essential for electronic screens.
