The 44 pages that link to RGB color model, each with the reason it gives.

• Color theoryCompared with: It models emitted light rather than the reflected pigments emphasized in painting.

• ColorimetryCompared with: RGB values depend on device primaries and encoding, whereas colorimetry uses standardized measurement conditions.

• CIE 1931 color spaceCompared with: Unlike XYZ, RGB coordinates depend on specified primaries and a device or encoding.

• CMYK color modelCompared with: RGB emits light, while CMYK inks absorb light reflected from paper.

• Subtractive colorCompared with: RGB describes emitted or combined light rather than absorption by colorants.

• Color wheelCompared with: An RGB wheel reflects light mixing rather than traditional paint-mixing relationships.

• Chroma subsamplingCompared with: RGB representation does not inherently separate brightness from chroma for selective subsampling.

• Tristimulus valuesCompared with: RGB values depend on chosen primaries and encoding, unlike standardized XYZ tristimulus values.

• Munsell color systemCompared with: RGB specifies emitted light mixtures, not perceptually ordered surface colors.

• Chromaticity diagramCompared with: RGB values depend on a defined set of primaries, while chromaticity coordinates express normalized color stimuli.

• RYB color modelCompared with: RGB concerns emitted light, whereas RYB is used to reason about pigment mixtures.

• CyanCompared with: Its cyan is produced by combining green and blue light rather than cyan ink.

• Trichromatic printingCompared with: RGB combines emitted light, unlike the subtractive inks used in printing.
