Samsung
Develops App to
Allow Color Blind Owners to
Enjoy Their New TVs
New TVs were once again one of the bestsellers during the Black Friday sales. But an estimated eight percent of people who might have purchased a new TV this week can’t fully
Enjoy its vibrant 4K Ultra HD, HDR, OLED, melt-your-eyeballs glory because of
Color blindness.
However, if you purchased a
Samsung TV, you may be in luck. Samsung, with the help of Budapest University of Technology, has developed an app called SeeColors that will help
Color Blind users assess
Their visual
Color spectrum and adjust the
Color settings on
Their TV accordingly to enhance the picture. The mobile app utilizes a special digital diagnostic method developed by the university called Colorlite Test, or C-Test. This method uses the concept of
Color filters and mathematical modeling to diagnose the types and levels of
Color blindness.
The feature is available for all
Samsung QLED TV’s, and the SeeColors app can be downloaded in the Google Play Store and Galaxy App Store.
