General Questions

How does BiColoRo work?

Simply scan an object, and the device will measure the reflected light. The two closest matching colors are then displayed in words on the screen. Additionally, a graph in the background maps out the detected light composition, transitioning from shorter to longer wavelengths; starting with blue, followed by green, and ending with red. The scanner is quick, intuitive, and easy to use. Example video's can be found at Usage.

Who can benefit from using BiColoRo?

BiColoRo is beneficial for individuals with all types of color vision defiency (CVD). It proves to be highly useful for a variety of people & sectors such as: CVD individuals, relatives supporting their loved ones, education, fashion (e.g., choosing clothes), research & development, healthcare and so on. The number of possibilities to use this technology is limitless.

Can people without color vision deficiency (CVD) use BiColoRo too?

Yes, of course! While BiColoRo is primarily designed for people with color vision deficiency, it's not limited to them. It can also be a valuable tool for educators, caregivers, family members, and anyone seeking to better understand and support those with CVD. Additionally, anyone curious about color perception or looking for a way to analyze colors may find it beneficial.

What are the key advantages of using BiColoRo? 

BiColoRo gives individuals with CVD a new level of independence, eliminating the need to rely on others for color-related tasks.

What sets BiColoRo apart from colorblind apps or glasses?

Unlike colorblind glasses, which shift color perception and worsen in different lighting, BiColoRo provides the true colors. This ensures accuracy, even in different lighting conditions. It also offers a more reliable solution than apps because it eliminates the inconsistencies (in different lighting). An example of a comparison between BiColoro and a mobile app is to be seen at Usage.

Can BiColoRo assist individuals with total colorblindness (achromatopsia)?

Absolutely! It displays the two closest colors in words on the screen, making it readable for everyone, even those with achromatopsia. Additionally, the background graph provides a visual breakdown of the detected light, offering another way to interpret colors. This is further explained in "How does BiColoRo work" in the General Questions section.

Can BiColoRo be used in different environments, such as indoors & outdoors?

Yes! BiColoRo performs seamlessly in both indoor and outdoor environments, as lighting conditions do not affect its performance. The only limitation is exposure to rain, as it is not waterproof.

Is BiColoRo child-friendly?

Absolutely! BiColoRo is designed to be very intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy for children to use. It has a simple scanning process with instant results and requires no complex setup, ensuring a hassle-free experience. However, for safety reasons, we recommend using it under proper parental guidance, as staring into the flashing light at the back of the scanner is not advised and could be harmful to the eyesight.
