Readings on Color: The science of color
Monochromatism A monochromat is a person who can match the spectrum with
any chosen wavelength provided he is allowed to adjust luminances. Two types
exist — rod- monochromats and cone-monochromats. A rod-monochromat is said

Perception Beyond Gestalt: Progress in Vision Research
We investigated this question in a series of experiments on the Norwegian
researcher and famous rod monochromat Knut Nordby (KN, 1942–2005). The
rod monochromat is, owing to a genetic deficiency, born with nonfunctional cone
...

Night Vision: Basic, Clinical and Applied Aspects
Comparison with Fig. 5.3b for a rod monochromat suggests that the form of the
predicted behaviour above cone threshold is also qualitatively correct. However,
in comparing the psychophysical results of Pugh (19756) with those of Nordby et
...
R. F. Hess, L. T. Sharpe, K. Nordby, 1990
Such a subject is called a monochromat, and his state is called monochromacy. (

receptors he has are rods, he is called a rod monochromat.) The term "
monochromat” ...

Sensation and Perception
A monochromat can match any wavelength in the spectrum by adjusting the
intensity of any other wavelength. Thus, a monochromat needs only one
wavelength to match any color in the spectrum and sees only in shades ofgray.
The reason for the sex difference will be explained later. Monochromats A rod
monochromat is the rare case of a person having only one type of receptor, the
rods. About 0.003 percent of the population are rod monochromats, and they
have ...

Scientific pluralism [electronic resource]
So, within the normal colored perspective, color judgments can be quite robust.
The same holds, however, for the black-and-white perspective. A rod
monochromat might remember a surface as being dark with light spots when, on
inspection, ...
