Abstract

The color of object is a main role that people recognize outdoor entity with its shape. We can perceive the object due to the existence of light such as direct sunlight. Light is classified by wavelength into radio, microwave, infrared, the visible region we perceive as light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. White light is all of the colors of light combined within the visible light spectrum. When white light is separated through a prism, we see the visible light spectrum. The various wavelengths of visible light are separated into colors. In this paper, we construct white light as the seven colors of rainbow and suggest the method of N-way color dispersion on photon mapping to simulate the phenomenon of natural dispersion.
