UC Berkeley scientists tricked the eye into seeing "the greenest green" they'd ever seen. They say it could transform how we understand and treat eye diseases, and expand the way we see the world around us.

      I seem to remember reading it’s so named because only the “G” in the (roughly) RGB cones are stimulated, so a 0-1-0 mapping onto the R-G-B colour space. 0-1-0 > olo.
