ColorPhi™ delivers a transformative visual augmentation platform for ophthalmology and clinical diagnostics by enhancing visual interpretation of color, contrast, and multispectral data. Initially designed for individuals with color vision deficiency (CVD), ColorPhi’s patented visual algorithms have expanded to support low vision and enable the real-time visualization of electromagnetic spectrum (EMS) data, including IR and UV bands. This facilitates a new class of clinical applications where information beyond visible light can be interpreted visually, instead of numerically or abstractly, potentially eliminating the need for color dyes in multispectral diagnostics.
Two issued U.S. patents (US9443488B2 and US10373583B2) and one pending patent protect the method of substituting invisible or undetectable data into visible representations. These algorithms can be tailored to individual vision profiles and preferences, allowing for customized outputs that balance accessibility and clinical utility. ColorPhi’s approach enhances visual perception without relying on overlays or post-processing, making it especially suitable for spatial and mobile, real-time diagnostic workflows.
ColorPhi’s latest advancement integrates AI-driven segmentation and classification—but as a complementary layer, not as a separate diagnostic engine. It is designed to enhance the visual output of existing and emerging AI solutions by rendering their detections in clearer, more perceivable ways. For example, when paired with third-party systems that identify tumors, lesions, or vascular anomalies, ColorPhi translates those outputs into personalized visual cues through its patented color substitution algorithms. This means clinicians and users can issue voice commands, such as “ColorPhi, highlight vascular anomalies,” and receive a visually enhanced view of what external AI tools have identified. This approach doesn’t compete with other diagnostic AI solutions; it amplifies its usability through adaptive visualization, increasing interpretation speed and confidence. With XR integration and SDK readiness, ColorPhi is poised to become a universal visualization layer for spatial computing, assistive technology, and AI-enhanced medicine.
