Number of Perceivable Object Color Stimuli
M. Brill, in his comments "Maximum number of discriminable colors in a region of uniform color space,' offers a different calculation method from that used by R. G. Kuehni in 'How many object colors can we distinguish?," one based on close-packing of just noticeable difference spheres. The number per just noticeable difference (JND) sphere is lower than that derived in Kuehni's study. Based on the resulting number of close-packed JND spheres in the CIECAM02/D65 object color solid and Brill's described multiplier of 5.923 potential stimuli within a JND sphere, the resulting number of distinguishable color stimuli is 9.114 million.
