Color Inspector: A Color Identification Tool for the Visually Impaired
Color Inspector is a free iPhone application developed by Aaron LHeureux. It falls under the Utilities & Tools category and aims to assist colorblind and visually impaired individuals in differentiating and identifying difficult colors. By utilizing live video, the app provides a description of the color in view.
The app offers various options to enhance the color identification process. Users can zoom in on the video feed, choose different sample sizes for analysis, and adjust torch settings to ensure accurate color recognition. One of the notable features of Color Inspector is its full VoiceOver support, making it accessible to individuals with visual impairments.
It is important to note that Color Inspector acknowledges the challenges posed by metallic and shiny surfaces. These surfaces can easily reflect the colors of surrounding objects and light sources, potentially leading to misidentification. The developer encourages users to report any misidentified colors through the application.
Please keep in mind that the availability of certain functionality may vary depending on the device.
