People who are colour-blind are
often at a disadvantage when it
comes to using public displays and
colour-coded systems. Now, availability of computer-controlled
colour displays has made it possible
to simulate how colour blind-people
perceive a complex colour screen.
Scientists at France's Museum
National d'Histoire Naturelle have
@eveloped a computer algorithm
that converts a colour video picture
into what would see a colour blind
person. Their work is based on the
colour perceptions reported by people who are colour-blind in 1 eye.
