Have you ever wondered how people with vision impairment can match so well? Texture and touch can only tell so much but color has to be seen, not felt. In fact if a person is born blind, how do they know what a color is at all? This new labeling system translates visual data into sounds.

It detects the brightness, saturation, and hue of color. You can sort thru like colors by organizing them in groups with similar tones. This comes in extremely handy when you’re trying to figure out your darks and lights when doing the laundry.
