Abstract
This work presents a series of didactic simulations to improve the teaching of colour at different educational levels. Specifically, the objective of these simulations was to show the student concepts related to metameric colour pairs. The simulations were developed using the software POV-Ray. This program was chosen because of its ability to generate images with a high degree of realism, producing hyper-realistic simulations of the optical phenomena explained.
