The anti-colorblind test



Are you color blind? The most common misconception about color blindness is that you can’t see any color. While this can be true in extreme cases, for the most part it is merely a case of colors (such as blue and purple or red and green) looking the same. Most tests ‘eliminate’ people who are color blind using tests that a color blind person cannot see.


Aaron Clauset has come up with a couple of tests that only color blind people can see. The image on top shows a red gradient. There is a hidden image in the gradient that only a color blind person can see. Follow the link for more information, and the to see the hidden image if you are not color blind.
