About Color Blind Check (CBC)
With Color Blind Check you get a new kind of color vision deficiency test right in your hands. The test itself is simple and easy: just find the differently colored spots which start to show up and touch them. That's all.
This color blindness test can be installed and used right away. As it is easy to understand, simple to use and you don't need to recognize any numbers, letters or forms, Color Blind Check can be done by young children as well. It is even fun to play! You can try to beat your highest CBC Score whenever you like and compare your results with your friends and family.
With Color Blind Check you get a tool at hand to share with everyone insights about your color vision or possible color blindness. People can watch you while you're taking the test and see instantly what it means to be colorblind. They start to wonder, why you don't see the differently colored spots appearing and maybe even want to give you hand!
How CBC works
Color Blind Check is based on the scientific knowledge about colors which can be seen and which not by the people who are suffering from the different types of color blindness. To get more precise results, the test is based on four different main colors and as even colorblind people are quite good in spotting brightness differences, Color Blind Check is shifting brightness constantly.
Compared to other well known tests with Color Blind Check it is NOT possible to learn something by heart and get better while retesting.
Warning: This app is not recommended for persons with epilepsy as the screen is constantly changing colors during the test procedure.
