An experiment in combining RGB additive color channels into a full color image using Photoshop's Normal blend mode.

The bottom layer must be set to 100% (one over one)

The middle layer must be set to 50% (one over two)

The top layer must be set to 33% (one over three)

This effectively averages the images into a 1/3 intensity composite. A final 300% brightening curve compensates.
