All robots already have RGB values stored in their data files already. It is the only way that VB can display them.
If we were to use wavelengths then..
first. we would have to convert them to RGB in order to display them.
Second. some colors like Brown and Pink would not be possible without mixing several wavelengths and displaying them simultaineously.
RGB is way simpler to use and implement.
There could also be an intensity value which is effecively R, G and B added together so that 765 (255+255+255) would be maximum intensity (pure white) and zero would be minimum. Almost all intensities would have several RGB combinations that could make them.

Actually PY there is 256 * 256 * 256, which is := 16.777.216 colors... Some very alike, but still another nuance (or whatever it is called in english, same color only slightly different and to the human eye really no difference)
Numsgil:
PY was talking about Black to White light intensity.
Like if you have a Black and White monitor displaying RGB, what intensities will each color be.

I know that but there are only 766 intensities, one of which is 0 therefore 765 is the highest possible intensity, bright white, while zero is the lowest possible intensity, black.

Oh sorry, I didnt read the whole post, just scan it and saw 3* 255 which didnt fit into my world...
I am truely sorry!
