About This Product
Students overlap the red, green and blue beams on the screen to see the secondary colours appear and all three combine to white, then turn the dials to blend in-between shades. Putting the cyan, magenta and yellow plates in the light path shows how a filter absorbs some colours and passes others, which links to pigments, printing and screen displays, and the rod casts coloured shadows. Laboratories and colleges in United States, Tajikistan, Lebanon, Syria, Bahrain and Malta can buy the Primary Colour Kit STEM Lab through an export order.
