Learn more about EnChroma

SeeCoast viewers, powered by EnChroma, enable those with color blindness to more fully experience the colorful beauty of nature at state parks, scenic overlooks, wildlife refuges and other locations. While people with normal color vision see more than one million hues and colors, people with color blindness see only an estimated 2% to 10% of them. As a result, their world view is less vibrant, with some colors appearing muddled or indistinguishable.

EnChroma Lens Technology

EnChroma’s patented lens technology is specially engineered to help those with red-green color blindness perceive clear, vibrant and distinct color. EnChroma modified its lens format and filter design for the high-power zoom optics in SeeCoast viewers so those with color blindness may enjoy the vibrant beauty of our world. The Tennessee Department of Tourist Development was the first to introduce SeeCoast viewers powered by EnChroma to enable color blind visitors to see the changing colors in Fall at 12 parks and scenic overlooks in 2017 and 2018.

Color Blindness and EnChroma

Color blindness affects one in 12 men (8%) and one in 200 women (.5%); an estimated 350 million people worldwide and 13 million in the US.

By installing an EnChroma powered SeeCoast viewer at your park, scenic overlook or wildlife refuge you can help grateful colorblind visitors experience nature’s colorful beauty and:

  • Attract more visitors to your park or state
  • Make their visits more colorful and memorable
  • Further your accessibility and inclusiveness goals
  • Reach a new audience of potential visitors
