Inspiration
Have attempted previously but all attempts have been weak and glitchy and due to the theme decided to see if this idea was possible because I didn't know if this was possible.
What it does
Using inputs of an Image, color deficiency type and strength of correction, outputs an image that has been color corrected so it is easier to see for the colorblind.
How we built it
Using Python and various libraries such as open-cv and pillow.
Challenges we ran into
The method used was very technically complex so it was hard to incorporate it into JS code without it taking minutes to run. Along with the time constraint this led me to just create a very simple UI in Colab in order to show the functionality of the app the best.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
The final images were color corrected very well and the addition of many other mathematical features that had greatly improved the result.
What we learned
How to use python and manipulating colorspaces of images.
What's next for Visible
A dedicated flask server that is able to run fast enough to execute the code as intended.
