Converting Color into Sound - Bright-F Helps Color-Blind (GALLERY)

If you’re suffer from color blindness then you’re more likely to miss that vibrant red t-shirt in your white load. Ending up with pink undies is no fun as a guy, losing the ability to color coordinate your outfits is so frustrating due to your inability to recognize colors.

Designer Lifeng Yu has come up with Bright-F to help vision impaired people recognize colors. Bright-F is a kind of labeling system that translates visual information into sounds.

It detects the brightness, saturation, and hue of color. You can sort through like colors by organizing them in groups with similar tones.

could someone please explain to me this habit of posting a comment consisting of a word or two from the title. I've seen it in many trends, a comment copying one or few words. Does it have any meaning or depth that I am missing?

I think it's because people want to add the trend to their portfolio, which is now done more easily with the favoriting button... So it might be time to get rid of the graphic above or to make the graphic refer to the favoriting...
