User quotes:
My fiancée happens to be colorblind, and being somewhat of an artist I had a hard time understanding what colorblindness meant and then visualizing what exactly he saw. This Vischeck website is amazing -- I love being able to almost "look through his eyes." He was also really interested in the Daltonize tool -- the painting demonstration made him wonder just how many "roads" he's missed before.

Daltonized artworks

Examples of famous works of art after the application of the Daltonize algorithm.

The aim was to alter the color balance to bring out details that would normally be hidden to dichromats. The Daltonize algorithm attempts to do this in such a was as to maintain the same overall look and feel of the image. In most cases, dichromats will see a difference between the original image and the Daltonized version.

Four images are presented on each page. These are the 1: original image, 2: a simulation of the original image as seen by a dichromat, 3: the Daltonized version of the original image and 4: a simulation of the Daltonized image as viewed by a dichromat. By comparing images 2 and 4, it is possible for subjects with normal color vision to appreciate the difference that the Daltonize algorithm makes.
