Black may give better contrast. Black background works well with OCR. Andy From: Scott Howell Sent: Monday, October 29, 2012 2:21 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: color visor Hi Jan,
I am curious if I were to put a white sheet of paper down and then placed a wire on the paper, would ColorVisor be able to give the color of that wire?

I'm sorry that you haven't that much luck with it from the beginning. Did you solved the problem, meanwhile? As Richard said, if you are in normal light conditions you may hold the camera a few inch away from the object. Take care about the shadow of your iPhone if you know the direction the light is coming from. If this doesn't work, turn on the torch by tapping the torch button at the bottom of the screen or simply shake your device. With the torch on, you may even lay your iPhone directly on the object. Sometimes, you may have different colors from the same uni-colored object. For example, if you scan clothes that are somehow folded or do have a lot of structure such as wool, there might be the original blue at one position and dark blue, violet or even dark grey at another position where shadows arise. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have further problems. There is also a support request built into the ColorVisor (press the Info-Button at the right center) to reach it.

Unfortunately, I can't get it to work properly. For the most part, it seem to think that everything is black. Every now and then, it may say several other colors. However, the other colors including saying black, is spoken when the camera is pointed at the same item.
