Color sensitivity #17 Reporter MikheilTektumanidze Team “Georgians”
About Problem • Some people (called color blind persons) have difficulties comparing the colors of two objects. But most people perceive the color difference at the first glimpse. How is it generally possible to quantitatively estimate the ability of a person to distinguish the color shades? Is a single numerical parameter sufficient, or a more complicated evaluation system is required?

Color definition Color is the visual perceptual property corresponding in human to the categories called red, blue, yellow, green and others.
Color vision Vision is ability of nearly all organisms to transform light into irritation. Everything starts in the eye…
Cones Cones are color-sensitive cells. They are 3 types red, blue and yellow. They have color-sensitive pigment. In front of this pigment there is liquid which filters colors. In human eye we have 3 kinds of filters (red, blue, yellow).
Color-blindness Color-blindness is illness when humans have problems with color vision. It can be genetic or mechanic disease. There are different kinds of color-blindness. If color-blindness is genetic, it is on X Chromosome.

Conclusion • There are many kinds of color-blindness. • One number is not enough to show that kind of color-blind person someone is.
