The RGB Color Model

The RGB color model is a system used to create colors by combining three primary colors: Red, Green, and Blue. When these colors are mixed at different intensities, they produce a wide range of colors. For example, combining red and green makes yellow, green and blue make cyan, and red and blue make magenta. When all three are combined at full power, they produce white; when none are used, it results in black. This model underpins many digital screens, such as monitors and smartphones, where colors are generated through varying the brightness of red, green, and blue pixels.
