Am I right yet?

No, not yet. You must be patient.

Do you know how long it took before we believed that the earth wasn't flat ?

Hopefully sometime 2moro I shall be conducting an experiment with this "white light" idea.

I`ve mannaged to get hold of a really rather fascinating semiconductor, in effect, it`s 3 mono frequency LED`s (Light Emiting Diodes" on the same silicon substrate, each of the 3 colors Red, Green and Blue can be controlled individualy, although the Red control seems to like it`s current alot more than the green and blue (easily compensated for).

I`m now working on a digital color selector, so I`ll be able to go through all 7 colors of the rainbow

incl White light

from the white light, I`ll color split it back to it`s new color components with a prism... I`ll let you all know the results

So if I understand your test right, you will generate for example yellow (with red and green) sent that yellow light through a prisma and look which colour(s) you will see after the prisma?

- only yellow

- red and green

- red, green and yellow.

yup, that about sums it up perfectly as to my plan, I do also plan on using the raw light 1`st and then passing it through a frosted glass filter next.

I wish to determine whether or not an external "scrambler" type influence plays a part also. so 2 tests really.

 

1) direct pure light through a prism

2) same light through a frosted diffuser then through a prism

interesting conversation

Thnx Dudde

 

well the experiment maybe a little deyaled for today, I`ve run out of glue sticks for my glue gun, and being sunday, there`s not much open. I SHALL tae some pics and post them though, if the cam will work at low light levels, as I`ll try and do this in total darkness to avoid external light contamination.

I`de use blu-tak for the lens`s no problem, but the electronics needs proper securing. not to worry though, I`ll find a way

I have a glue stick for a glue gun!

..I don't have a glue gun

 

nor do I have a use for a glue gun

 

but I've got the stick
