Software for simulating dichromatic perception of video streams

We have designed a configurable stand‐alone Matlab‐based software to simulate dichromatic perception of video streams. The algorithm used is an extension for video streams of the “corresponding pair algorithm” by Capilla and coworkers for simulation of dichromatic perception of images. The software allows the user to upload a video sequence and to process it using different dichromatic color vision models and viewing conditions. The output video may be generated in different spatial and temporal resolutions and file formats. The functions for Matlab environment and a stand‐alone application may be downloaded from the Repository of the University of Alicante. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 39, 486–491, 2014
