AUTHORING AND OPTIMIZATION OF ACCESSIBLE COLOR THEMES

Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to computer storage, methods, and systems for the optimization of accessible color themes. Systems and methods are disclosed that leverage the use of confusion lines to identify and highlight relationships between colors that may be inaccessible (e.g., indistinguishable) for a person with a vision impairment, such as a color vision deficiency. In some embodiments, a graphical user interface is provided that, based on a selection of colors in a color wheel, visually indicates curves of confusion for each color in the selection of colors. Each curve of confusion visually indicates a confusion of colors for a type of vision impairment, such as a CVD.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MEASURING RELATIVE AFFERENT PUPILLARY DEFECTS
20230404388 · 2023-12-21 ·

Methods and systems for administering a modular and/or flexible eye test to patients are presented that leverages on the visualization, processing, and eye tracking capabilities of a head mounted display (HMD). In an embodiment, a method for evaluating the pupillary responses includes using a head mounted display (HMD) worn by a patient to expose a first eye to light stimulation in accordance with a relative afferent pupillary defects (RAPD) eye test, an imaging device of the HMD receiving image data of the first eye, then exposing a second eye to the same RAPD eye test and receiving image data of the second eye, and generating at least one test result by using the image data of the first eye and the image data of the second eye.

BIOMARKER OF THE COLOUR PERCEPTION OF A MAMMAL SUBJECT BASED ON PUPIL FREQUENCY TAGGING
20210076931 · 2021-03-18 ·

The invention relates to the evaluation of the perception of colors by mammals with a view to obtaining a characteristic biomarker of each tested subject. It takes advantage of the slow pupillary oscillatory response to generate an objective neurological signature of this perception of colors. A method based on pupil frequency tagging is used at a tagging frequency F.sub.tag adapted to the pupil response speed. A dynamic two-color stimulus is displayed, this stimulus comprising a two-color pattern the colors of which are inverted at the frequency F.sub.tag, one of the colors gradually varying in a range of possible values. From the pupillary response, a signal representative of the oscillation power of the pupil is generated. The minimum of this signal corresponds to the relative iso-luminance of the tested pair of colors.
