Details A method of color scheme is proposed considering contrast of luminance between adjacent regions and design property. This method aims at setting the contrast of luminance high, in order to make the image understandable to visually handicapped people. This method also realizes preferable color design for visually normal people by assigning color components from color combination samples. Interactive evolutionary computing is adopted to design the luminance and the color, so that the luminance and color components are assigned to each region appropriately on the basis of human subjective criteria. Here, the luminance is designed first, and then color components are assigned, keeping the luminance unchanged. Since samples of fine color combinations are applied, the obtained color design is also fine and harmonic. Computer simulations verify the high performance of this system.
