What was so special about this dress?
Well, the dispute was regarding its actual color!
The original photo posted on the Tumblr was made up of blue and black colored pixels!!
Scientists have finally unraveled the mystery of #TheDress.
A major chunk of older generations reported the dress to be #whiteandgold.
Dr Conway further believes that it all depends on how the human brain processes various hues of a daylight.
So basically it all depends on whether the brain perceives the artificial indoor or the natural outdoor light.
The study also revealed that the older people voted for #whiteandgold while the younger generation reported #blackandblue.
Hence, Dr Conway further concluded that color perception varies with the age and sex of an individual.
Dr Conways paper was one among the three papers that were submitted.
According to these researchers, the color confusion probably arises due to the effect of brightness and daylight locus.
As per scientists daylight locus is a set of chromatic phases of the daylight from yellow to blue.
This was the third team that was engaged in the study.
