Abstract The purpose of the project was to figure out which cone cell type takes the longest to recover from afterimages, or fatigue. This will determine the effect(s) of cone cells on recovery times, and will assist in figuring out what out of the three cone types (red, green, and blue) takes the longest to recover from afterimages (images produced by an imbalance of fatigue, and concentration on a colour).
