Abstract

The present article carries out an explanatory research, in which the chromatic perception in curd cheese packages aimed at color blindness was evaluated. Color blindness is a visual dysfunction of colors, which affects the ability to differentiate between them. Through the use of color-blind color vision model simulators, it was possible to observe changes in the levels of red, green and blue (RGB) and hue, saturation and brightness (HSB). From the results obtained, the study seeks to emphasize the importance of designing with accessibility.
