Default Blue, green, turquoise .. I don't fucking know

Is My Blue Your Blue?
Test your colour perception with this interactive test.

My reaction to most was "it's turquoise!" but I tried to think about someone with a gun to my head forcing me to call it green or blue.

My result was rather boring: Your boundary is at hue 174, just like the population median. You're a true neutral.

Sou was different, she got: Your boundary is at hue 168, greener than 80% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

I got a hue of 180+, bluer than 90%. But I'm with you in that I would have selected turquoise for most of them.

This could explain why my wife & daughter say our house is blue, and I keep saying it's sea-green or turquoise. However, I scored bluer than 87%, so I'll have to see if they're even bluer.

Greener than me, but I'll admit I could have randomly chose a lot of the turquoise options.

"Your boundary is at hue 179, bluer than 82% of the population. For you, turquoise is green."

Well, I've seen Turquoise that was pretty much everywhere on the Blue-Green spectrum.

Your boundary is at hue 175, bluer than 59% of the population. For you, turquoise is green.

I did it based upon, if I saw that color in a swimming pool, would I say that the pool water was green?

Your boundary is at hue 170, greener than 77% of the population. For you, turquoise is blue.

It probably depends on what screen you're viewing the test, and the lighting conditions you're in. I think I'd choose greener if I was sat under a sunshade next to an outdoor Mediterranean swimming pool, and bluer if I was walking around the town's shopping mall. :shrug:
