Interesting website to see what you personally perceive as "blue"
Kinda wondering if you'd get different results for using a different display (especially of different technology)
This what I got from two consecutive tests anyways (weird that the percentage is different)
Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 81% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.
Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 85% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.
I got 176 on both phone and monitor.
The percentage is based on how many people have used the thing, so if it is suddenly popular and a lot more runs are completed it can shift the percentage.

Ohh now it makes sense, thanks
Shoot, I got significantly different results from two consecutive tests on the same device. I suspect the sequence of colors affects perception, too.
In my first run, I perceived greater differences between the sequential colors and I got a couple that were in the extremes, and got around 65% (I don't recall the hue number). The second run, many colors were only a little different from their predecessors, and I didn't get any really obviously blue or green - they were all subtle variations of turquoise, and I scored at 76% (177).
Depending on how shit your screen is, you'll even get a different result depending on how far above or below you it is.
My IPS is fine, my cheap LCD second screen shows a gradient from green to cyan for most of it.
That screen cost me a whopping £30 from CEX. They said it had dead pixels on one side, but on closer inspection, it appears to be either ink or blood.
It's a CEX in a small town.
I'm not assuming anything other than whatever money was handed over by the store for this thing was rapidly exchanged for the smallest available quantity of heroin from a local dealer.
J'ai fait le test et je trouverais intéressant de le refaire en changeant la luminosité/clareté des tons. Pour les tons clairs, dans le doute je choisi bleu, mais c'est possible que je fasse pas pareil pour les tons foncés.
Ouais je pense que le calibrage de l'écran joue beaucoup aussi, sur mon pc les trois dernières couleurs étaient les mêmes à mes yeux, à cause de mon écran un peu nul
Tout le monde cite le calibrage, mais je suis bien plus interessé par la perception perso. Je sais même pas si ça se calibre un écran d'ordiphone.
Très bonne question, mais pour la perception je pense qu'il y a une part d'apprentissage culturel !
Test is flawed. Does not allow for demilitarized zone between blue and green!
This leads to blueward expansion by green and a preemptive war by blue!
our boundary is at hue 176, bluer than 75% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
Je distingue ce que j'appelle en français, le bleu turquoïse et le vert turquoïse. Dans mon langage, c'est là que ce trouve la frontière entre les bleus et les verts.Cyan is specifically defined as the color halfway between green and blue. Is yellow red? Yellow has just as much green in it as Cyan.
I was bluer than 97%. I'm not color blind and never thought my color perception was anything other than average, before.
i feel like this needs like 5x as many data points before giving a result, also at some point to me the only correct answer would be "neither" because the middle point is just Cyan to me, which isn't blue and definitely isn't green, just like how orange isn't yellow but definitely isn't red.
That’s cause if you know name of colors with associated color, you more easily distinguish them, there was nice article in scientific american around that stuff. Anglos don’t typically separate for example light blue/cyan as a big color, and thus spend more time choosing lighter blue hue among others. This test is largely for funsies.
And 8 bit colors don’t have lots of space to do more datapoints tbh.
i more mean that it needs to show you the same colour several times, before and after different colors each time, because right now my scores are jumping wildly between runs.
ideally it should also show red between each hue, to reset your eyes and brain a bit.
Your boundary is at hue 174, just like the population median. You're a true neutral.
Is this the new method to determine Alignments? Maybe Orange <-> Yellow for the other axis?
Perception isn't a straightforward answer that is "right" or "wrong"
On the internet, your perception is always wrong.
My perception is right.
Your boundary is at hue 175, bluer than 65% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.
Actually hard, because I use to distinguish Cyan from Green and Blue, so categorizing it to either blue or green was a bit difficult
I don't think turquoise and cyan are the same color. Are you saying you do?
Yup, maybe because of computer graphics; I tend to consider Cyan, Turquoise and Teal as some kind of synonyms (or really similar to eachother); ususally I call it when there is almost as much green as blue "Cyan"
When looking at definitions, there are not the same colors, but are still all different shades of Green and Blue (I don't personnaly recognize them well, so I consider them with the same name; like people call them Green or Blue here)
My rainbow wheel be like: Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Cyan - Blue - Purple - Magenta - Red
Like for the pixels on your screen are RGB = Red, Green & Blue; and the paint in Inkjet printers are CYMK (Cyan, Yellow, Magenta, blacK)
If you start out with the primaries and keep mixing to get the hues between you'll end up with 6, then 12, and then 24 hues at the quaternary level. Orange is a tertiary color with it's opposite being Azure.

Ah. Teal/Turquoise are the same to me: a blue green. Cyan is a neon light blue.
Cyan, #00FFFF: https://www.canva.com/colors/color-meanings/cyan/
Turquoise, #30D5C8: https://www.canva.com/colors/color-meanings/turquoise/
According to your website, teal would be a darker shade of Cyan
Teal, #008080: https://www.canva.com/colors/color-meanings/teal/
And by what I read #30D5C8, so Turquoise is a nuance near to Cyan, but grayer/desaturated (there is a bit of red), and a bit more towards green than blue (D5 > C8)
Cyan/Teal (darker cyan) are the true middle between Green & Blue, with exactly as much green as blue in it
According to your website, teal would be a darker shade of Cyan
Hmm... By just the numeric hex code, I agree, that makes sense. Just lowering the G and B values makes it darker. However, lowering BOTH G and B lowers B twice, since G can be broken into Y and B by color theory, so blue is removed proportionately more. So, somewhat disagree.
I still don't think Teal and Cyan are the same. I'd say Teal and Turquoise are closer, in my eyes. I think Teal is darker Turquoise moreso than it's darker Cyan.
But at the end, color is all subjective.
Yeah, exactly that kind of nuancing problem, that make me tell Cyan/Turquoise/Teal as "the same color" in everyday use (and for my fellows French people, that do not use to use Turquoise or Cyan words in everyday life, I use to say "Blue-Green"; but I don't like to call these nuances either "Blue" or "Green", as nobody never agrees depending on the nuance, and that makes awkward situations)
The issue with the term light blue is that people think of light as being warmer and green tends to have a higher chromatic luminance. A true "light blue" would actually be periwinkle as it's the tint of primary blue.
Doesn't the intensity of blue fade over the life of most OLED displays? Couldn't that skew the results?
