SpectralSense presents ColorSense — Perceptual AI for a life lived in color

Color is information.
Color is emotion.
Color is life.

The world’s first perceptual AI built to enhance the joy of living a life of color. ColorSense picks up where the eye falls short.

Why: 1.1 billion people do not perceive color with any uniformity — missing information that shapes nearly every aspect of life.

What: We’re harnessing AI and deep spectral technology to change that. To bring color to an otherwise colorless world.

Why it matters

Try getting dressed with your eyes closed
and leave the house. Every day.

This is the reality for over 8 million Boomers in the US alone with age-related macular degeneration. Genetic factors, macular degeneration and accidents also fundamentally change the way people see colors, shapes and hues. This problem is predicted to affect over 1.8 billion people globally by 2050. This makes dressing with confidence a challenge for millions. Not anymore. ColorSense is an advanced AI sensor-based system that manages all your clothing and looks for those who cannot see as well as the rest.

The real question
What would you wear?
Color is personal. ColorSense learns yours — and speaks it back to you every morning.
Monochrome shirts
Without color context
Bold fashion
He might want to look like this. Or he might not — and that’s the point. ColorSense learns your style, not a trend.
Your style. Your rules.

We get to know
the real you.

Trends are noise. ColorSense listens past them — cataloging what you actually reach for, learning what combinations feel right to you, and building a style profile that’s yours alone. Not a magazine’s. Not an algorithm’s. Yours.

Diverse people and styles
Confidence

Shop smarter. Wear bolder. ColorSense gives you the confidence to pick the right outfit — every single time.

Define your style

You are an individual. Don’t let fading eyesight dull your shine.

Personal stylist

Not sure what works? ColorSense’s built-in style rules and professional suggestions have you covered.

Wardrobe and device
What ColorSense is

Your wardrobe. Understood. Spoken aloud.

ColorSense senses what you’re wearing, identifies its color and style with laboratory-grade precision, and uses AI to recommend what to wear — and why. Voice-first. No screen required.

🎨

Multi-channel spectral color sensing

ColorSense measures light far beyond what the human eye can see — across many discrete wavelengths from visible into near-infrared. Every garment is precisely identified: navy vs. black, cream vs. white, sage vs. olive.

🧠

AI that learns your wardrobe

Walk around your closet for three days. ColorSense catalogs everything and begins suggesting outfits based on color rules, weather, and occasion.

🔊

Says it out loud, simply

No app. No screen. Just “Hey ColorSense” — and a calm voice tells you what to wear, why it works, and exactly where to find it.

👨‍👩‍👧

Caregiver sets the rules

A family member sets weather rules, occasion reminders, and personal preferences once — from any device, anywhere in the world.

How it works

Four steps to independence.

Step 01
📦

Place ColorSense in the closet

ColorSense sits on any shelf or countertop. Plug it in, connect to Wi-Fi, and it’s ready. No installation. No drilling.

Step 02
🚶

Walk your wardrobe

Slowly browse your clothes for three days with ColorSense nearby. It silently catalogs colors, styles, and positions — building your personal wardrobe map.

Step 03
📋

Caregiver sets the rules

From any laptop or phone, a family member logs in and sets conditions: coat when cold, church dress on Sunday, umbrella when it rains.

Every day
✨

Say “Hey ColorSense”

ColorSense checks the weather, evaluates every rule, and speaks a personalized morning briefing. No buttons. No screens. Just a voice you trust.

Under the hood

ColorSense doesn’t just see.
It remembers.

Spectral fingerprinting. Computer vision. Wardrobe memory. A voice you trust. Here’s exactly how a closet full of clothes becomes a morning briefing — in under a second.

Under the hood

Serious hardware.
Invisible to the user.

ColorSense packs research-grade sensing hardware into a device that feels like a speaker — because it should.
