Subject: [Audyssey] Color idenfitying program
My wife and I were talking and we came up with a fun little idea. For all
of you severely Vi/blind guys who have a webcam, or a laptop with a webcam
mounted on it, this is a small program for identifying colors. Lets say
you are picking out clothes to wear. You hold the shirt in front of the
laptop (or camera), press the Space bar, and a voice tells you what color
it is as well as the next 2 most likely colors. I say "most likely"
because webcam settings, room lighting, and even the types of light bulbs
in the room can tint objects and offset the color a little. From my
testing at home, it is pretty accurate. I was just wondering if something
like this would be useful.

If anyone wants to give it a try, here it is. Press Space bar to check a
color and press Escape to end the program. As a tip, hold the item close
to the camera lens before you press the Space bar, and keep it there until
the color is spoken. It works best this way.
