Moving around in a 3D world, requires the visual system of a living individual to rely on three channels of image recognition, which is done through three types of retinal cones. Newton, Grasmann, Helmholz and Schrödinger laid down the basic assumptions needed to understand colored vision. Such concepts were furthered by Resnikoff, who imagined the space of perceived colors as a 3D homogeneous space. This article is concerned with perceived colors regarded as random objects on a Resnikoff 3D homogeneous space model. Two applications to color differentiation in machine vision are illustrated for the proposed statistical methodology, applied to the Euclidean model for perceived colors.
