Evolution of human colour vision that are found between 450 and 625. Individuals with various forms of colour blindness such as deuteranopia and protanopia are missing human middle wavelength sensitive or long wavelength sensitive opsins. Their minimum wavelength differences are <5 but only at around 500. Protanopes, who are missing long wavelength sensitive cones, are unable to distinguish between colours in the green-yellow-red section of the electromagnetic spectrum. They find yellow, red and orange colours to have much lower brightness when compared to a trichromat. The dimming of these colours can result in confusion in many cases, such as when attempting to identify red traffic
Colour recovery were made in black and white, using still colour photos and/or some educated guesswork to manually choose a colour palette. Conversely, the goal of colour recovery is to reinstate (as closely as possible) the colour signals of programmes originally made in colour as they were first seen. Colour recovery reconstructs the colour information from actual recovered signals and theoretically without depending on guesswork. As of 2018, colour recovery has successfully been applied to episodes of the BBC TV programmes "Doctor Who", "Dad's Army", and "Are You Being Served?". Due to the well-documented practice of wiping, many original videotape recordings of
