I read somewhere that there are over 16 million different colors. 16 million is an estimate of how many different colors a 24 bit RGB computer monitor can simulate. This has no relevance to how many different colors the human eye can distinguish. Just as there are infinitely many numbers between 380 and 740 - including all of the fractions, of course - so there are infinitely many wavelengths between 380 and 740 nanometers - the visible spectrum of light. That doesn't even count the different tints and shades obtained by mixing in white, black, etc.
The world is a colorful place, and scientists suspect that it's a lot more colorful for some people than for others. Preliminary research suggests that a small percentage of people can perceive about 100 million colors, as compared with the roughly one million colors most of us can see.hen there are tetrachromats--like certain fish, birds, and insects, some humans are believed to be tetrachromatic, meaning their eyes have four different types of cone cells. So, do the math, and human tetrachromats should be able to see 100 million different colors.
