Age-related Visual Contrast Measuring System And Its Application to Web-Safe Colors

  • Published : 2004.08.23

Abstract

We have developed a system that measures the visual contrast of people of various ages (from teens to those in their 70s) when they look at different color patterns. We have applied this system to Web-safe colors (216 colors), and have developed an age-related visual contrast checker that can be used to quickly determine whether a color pattern consisting of any two colors is easy to see.
