-Omnihue is a true-to-color reproduction technology invented by [[:character:kage_yaichiro]] in [[timeline:YE 41]] that is found in paints, inks, dyes, and optional skin pigmentation.  It uses photoelectric nanomachine-filled beads to represent any color in the typically visible spectrum, plus infrared and occasionally near-ultraviolet, with a refresh rate of 500 frames per second.  This is often used to draw an image on virtually any surface, including animation.  It can also detect light and is thus used for camera, fingerprint sensor, and touchscreen applications.  Its photovoltaic properties also allow it to be used for solar panels.+Omnihue is a true-to-color reproduction technology invented by [[characters:yamatai:kage_yaichiro]] in [[timeline:YE 41]] that is found in paints, inks, dyes, and optional skin pigmentation.  It uses photoelectric nanomachine-filled beads to represent any color in the typically visible spectrum, plus infrared and occasionally near-ultraviolet, with a refresh rate of 500 frames per second.  This is often used to draw an image on virtually any surface, including animation.  It can also detect light and is thus used for camera, fingerprint sensor, and touchscreen applications.  Its photovoltaic properties also allow it to be used for solar panels.

 The sole technological 'disadvantage' compared to Varihue is that while the nanomachines typically do not need supplemental external power due to their photoelectric properties, they tend to deactivate when sealed away without any ambient energy or light.  They thus appear jet black until a source is made available.  After being exposed to light or radio waves, the saved image is rapidly displayed once more.  This takes 2 milliseconds from exposure to restored image and is hardly ever noticeable in practice. The sole technological 'disadvantage' compared to Varihue is that while the nanomachines typically do not need supplemental external power due to their photoelectric properties, they tend to deactivate when sealed away without any ambient energy or light.  They thus appear jet black until a source is made available.  After being exposed to light or radio waves, the saved image is rapidly displayed once more.  This takes 2 milliseconds from exposure to restored image and is hardly ever noticeable in practice.
  
-Due to the nature of the technology being superior to other forms of printing, which typically use subtractive color spaces, it was found to be suitable for all manner of uses in the civilian market.  As such, [[:corp:yugumo_corporation]] will use it for other items as well.  For government and military purposes, it was licensed to [[corp:ketsurui_zaibatsu]] for in-house production and application to existing and new technologies as needed.  As such, it is possible to see equipment being upgraded to employ Omnihue's characteristics.+Due to the nature of the technology being superior to other forms of printing, which typically use subtractive color spaces, it was found to be suitable for all manner of uses in the civilian market.  As such, [[corp:yugumo_corporation:start]] will use it for other items as well.  For government and military purposes, it was licensed to [[corp:ketsurui_zaibatsu]] for in-house production and application to existing and new technologies as needed.  As such, it is possible to see equipment being upgraded to employ Omnihue's characteristics.
