This paper introduces a novel real-time color image

pivotal for applications like video image segmentation and
real-time color sensors. The approach involves determining
the dominant color based on RGB color and luminance

6 III.
Before delving into the project analysis, it's essential to
grasp the fundamentals of color detection. Essentially, color
detection involves recognizing the names of colors, a task
effortlessly performed by humans due to the seamless
coordination between our eyes and brain. In this project, we
leverage this natural process by transmitting signals from
light receptors in our eyes to the brain to detect color names.
Specifically, we focus on tracking three primary
colors—Red, Green, and Blue—using basic principles of
computer vision. Through a straightforward implementation,
the code generates a window displaying an image with color
names for each pixel and the composition of red, blue, and
green colors. The applications of computer-based color
detection are vast, including its use in robotic arms for
selecting items based on color, image editing and drawing
apps, and decision-making in driverless cars by detecting
and interpreting traffic light signals.[2]
3.COLOR DETECTION OF RGB IMAGE USING PYTHON
Color detection involves recognizing the names of
colors, a task that comes naturally to humans but poses a
challenge for computers. Unlike humans, computers lack the
innate ability to easily discern colors. The human visual
system, with the collaboration of eyes and brain, translates
8
light into color by transmitting signals from light receptors
in the eyes to the brain, enabling color recognition. From
childhood, humans learn to associate specific lights with
their respective color names. This project focuses on
enhancing the quality of life for blind individuals through
color detection. While a blind person with training can
function similarly to someone with perfect vision, tools like
color detection can offer additional support, aiding in tasks
such as identifying clothing colors or appreciating art. Color
