Color Cone

Color Cone is a real-time color vision simulation shader designed to accurately reproduce how different types of color perception and color blindness affect visual output.

👁️ Supported Vision Modes

The shader includes simulation for:

• Normal Vision
• Deuteranopia (No Green Cone)
• Protanopia (No Red Cone)
• Tritanopia (No Blue Cone)
• Deuteranomaly (Weak Green Cone)
• Protanomaly (Weak Red Cone)
• Tritanomaly (Weak Blue Cone)
• Achromatopsia (No Cone Cells)
• Blue Cone Monochromacy

Each mode transforms the rendered image to reflect the perceptual characteristics of the selected vision type.

⚙️ How It Works

• Applies cone response transformation matrices
• Adjusts RGB channel sensitivity per vision profile
• Simulates full dichromacy, anomalous trichromacy, and monochromacy
• Runs efficiently in real time

🎯 Use Cases

• Accessibility testing
• Inclusive game & UI design
• Educational visualization
• Visual research & experimentation

🚀 Key Features

• Single shader, multiple vision profiles
• Fast and lightweight implementation
• Easy integration into rendering pipelines
• Accurate perceptual approximation

Color Cone helps developers, designers, and researchers better understand how visuals are perceived across different types of color vision.
