In America, quite possibly, sinse American money is irritatingly all the
same colour and design (or it was when I was lastt over there), only the
numbers on the notes are different.
Interestingly enough though, the colour change program probably would work
to an extent with English notes sinse they do at least have patches of
different colour (how I tell them apart myself), though of course the
colours can often be faded.
Beware the Grue!

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.
