Hi Sandy,
Sorry, I need to clarify. I am talking about the colorino. I don't know
about the rainbow.
Thanks,
Lois

Richard,
Will the colourino or the rainbow tell you the colour and/or the flashing
status of LEDs?
Thanks, Sandy

In the world of standalone color identifiers, yes the Colorino is very
good. Also the Rainbow 2 by Emerson Electronics is also very good for
basic colors and costs about $50 less than the Colorino.
However, if you want to know if your shirt has a pattern, you will need
either sighted assistance or use an app like iDentifi or TapTapSee.
They will usually also tell you that it is blue, white, red, green flowers
or whatever.
Granted, the color accuracy with the iPhone camera is not as good as the
stand alone devices, but it can get you roughly in the ball park.
If you truly want accurate color identification you will have to have a
sighted person assist you in labelling the clothes in some form.
Digit-Eyes makes great labels that can be sown into a garment and you can
record as detailed a description as you like, but that is fairly time
intensive.
This is all up to each person's level of detail they wish to know.
I have to admit, while I test all these things for clients, I cheat and
just have my sighted wife tell me what something is and whether they go
together. What can I say, I'm lazy, grin.
If I was on my own again, I would go the Digit-Eyes label route or cut my
wardrobe back to what it was in my single days where everything matched so
it didn't matter. I figure since my wife wanted me to dress in more
colors, it is her job to keep things straight, ha, ha.
Later,
Richard

The best option is still a good old stand-alone colour identifier like the
Colorino, it does I think 150 colours, but it speaks them as
understandable colours and not like whatever weird names they come up with
like the one you mentioned. The Colorino will say maybe "Intensive Red" or
something like that, but pretty clear what it means and much more reliable
than anything you can get for the iPhone. They do also seem to last since
I had mine for probably 15 years and all I ever do is to replace the
batteries maybe once a year.

Sieghard

Which color identifying app will announce basic primary colors?
I've tried apps that announce colors like: Royal Canadian Mist".
So what color is that?
See what I'm saying?

also iDentifi does a good job. but you need to know that none of them are
going to be anywhere near what a sighted person sees, especially with
patterns or different shades.
But either app, TapTapSee or iDentifi will be close, depending on lighting
of course.
