Color blindness is a form of generative deficiency
where the patient lost the ability to recognize color, either
particular color (partial color blind) or the whole color (total
color blind). The disability of the patient to recognize color is
potential to cause problems to the patient in daily life or in more
specific area. To help the patient cope with problem in
recognizing colors, a color blindness helping system is designed.
This system is designed for embedded system and Windows
Phone 7 using the concept of augmented reality. In this work, we
have implemented an integrated color detection module
integrated in color blind aid system in the form of application for
embedded system and mobile application. Testing result on
embedded system shows that the module is able to detect the
color samples with the percentage of 69.33% using Hue
Saturation Value (HSV) color model, and 90.67% using Hue
Lightness Saturation (HLS) color model in a bright and ideal
lighting condition. Testing on mobile application shows that the
module is able to detect color samples with percentage of 11.33%
using Red Green Blue (RGB) color model and 95.33% using HLS
color model in a bright and ideal lighting condition.
