Color Blindness Simulator

Protan/deutan use Viénot 1999 and tritan uses Brettel 1997 with two projection planes, from libDaltonLens. Values are decoded to linear sRGB and re-encoded after the transform. Anomalous variants use a fixed 0.5 blend with the original; grayscale variants use linear luminance and a half blend. These approximations are not calibrated to an individual.

Compare one image or HEX color across eight color-vision previews locally. These are approximate design aids; they do not diagnose vision or guarantee an accessible design.
