Description

Red is a color produced by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of about 630–700nm. It is considered a primary color in both the RGB additive as well as in the traditional RYB color wheel. An average red color is represented by the following color coordinates:

  • Hex triplet: # 0000FF
  • RGB: (o, o, o); CMYK (0, 0, 0, 100)
  • HSV: (30°, 100%, 59%)
