Retinal cones
- Receptor cells that have differing sensitivity to different wavelengths of light
- Every cone has one out of the three pigment types
- The vast majority of visual objects stimulate at least 2 pigment types
- Allows for good visual acuity and perception of form
- Neurons detect differences between cones, allowing for color perception
