18. A method of controlling a color display screen in a vehicle interior, comprising:
performing, via a host computer, a color calibration test of a potential user of the vehicle interior in which the user is subjected to a calibrated set of color-coded test information, the color-coded test information including colors in a standard red, green, blue (sRGB) gamut, including presenting the calibrated set of color-coded test information to the user via a display screen of the vehicle interior or a user device in remote communication with the host computer, the color-coded test information including standard red, green, blue (sRGB) symbols or graphics;
receiving, via the host computer, a color perception response of the user to the calibrated set of color-coded test information;
mapping a reduced visual gamut of the user via the host computer using the color perception response and a Daltonization algorithm, including:
converting the sRGB gamut and the color perception response of the user to a user-specific long, medium, short (LMS) response;
mapping the colors in the sRGB gamut to a new color palette using the LMS response; and
converting the new color palette back to the sRGB gamut using a color space conversion process;
identifying a color gap in which the reduced color gamut is not sufficiently large to generate at least three distinct discernable colors;
filling the color gap using icons, text, and/or graphics as an alternate signage formulation; and
commanding (i) an adjustment of user-specific color settings of the color display screen using the reduced visual gamut, and (ii) a display of the alternate signage formulation, to thereby accommodate a color perception deficiency of the user.
