Blue vs green

[Frank Cox]

Here's an interesting site. It shows you blue and green and rates how you perceive the colours.

My result says "Your boundary is at hue 178, bluer than 78% of the population. For you, turquoise is green."

Here is the article about it:

Well, this is a bit arbitrary as for some colors, my answer would've been this is neither green nor blue, but simply turquoise, so I made the decision on a flip side for two or three of them.

This is the result:

Your boundary is at hue 171, greener than 76% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

Haha... i think that is more of a linguistics test than a hue perception test. Reading the article kinda reinforces that.
"But how do we do more complex things like giving them names or recognizing them from memory?"

That and OMG trying to test this with the variability of color reproduction in consumer displays. Yeesh.

BTW my boundary hue was 181, bluer than 87% (on this monitor).

I did the test on a rather expensive calibrated screen yesterday... Not that it tells you much, because did they develop this test on a perfectly calibrated screen?

I just did this test again on a random TFT panel in the office:

Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 80% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

Still, some colors I just had to wing it... is it green? No, is it blue? No... It's turquoise... Most colorists and artists seem to agree that it's technically its own color...

PS: Even the lightning in the room can affect how you perceive the colors on screen. Same for your contrast and brightness settings...

It's not accurate unless you have a calibrated monitor...

Still interesting, though.

Absolutely!
