- Scientists claim to have discovered a new colour, "olo," which has been described as a highly saturated blue-green.
- "Olo" cannot be seen by the naked eye and requires a laser stimulation technique called the Oz Vision System.
- Five participants in the experiment were able to see "olo," describing it as more saturated than any naturally occurring colour.
- Some experts dispute the claim, arguing that "olo" is simply a more saturated green perceived under specific conditions.
- It is hoped that the Oz Vision System could someday simulate vision for the colour-blind, but its current reliance on specialised lasers limits widespread use.
