Quite an interesting test..........

wonder if it depends on how good your monitor is I noticed it depends what angle it's tilted at.

For those with high socres it may just tell you that you have a cruddy monitor with a cheap LCD panel. Those using CRT monitors should get better scores, as the colour rendition is usually better.

I sent it around the office, so far we have had the following results:

53,19,2 and a 0 (me )

Sadly I dont think it will make a difference any way. The number of colours able to be displayed on TFT screens made in the last 15-20 years has been equal to the number of colours that graphics cards are capable of outputting. So wheter it is TFT or CRT it makes no odds.

What you used to be able to do with CRT's (top end ones) was calibrate the colours so that the displayed interpretation of a colour on a display closely matched the RGB make up of that colour. I am not too sure if this can be done on TFT's.

Tried on my laptop screen and got 7.

No, I'm sorry, that's not the point. The colour points of the primaries on a lot of cheap LCDs is very far away from where they should be - pure red looks orange for example. This is a cost saving in the colour filters on the LCD.

You can send lots of gradations from your graphics card, but if the red ain't red then you just get very fine steps between the wrong colours. Photo editing on LCDs is notoriously unreliable.

The eye is not very sensitive to colour shifts around red, so that's the whole point of the test. Colour is a vector quantity between Red, Green and Blue Primaries. If you have the wrong colour primaries then you cannot resolve the colours.

I too have perfect colour vision.
That's nice to know after 25 years looking at computer screens.
