Abstract

Embodiments disclosed herein include systems and methods for demonstrating the functionality of eyewear using digital images on an electronic display. The functionality of certain types of eyewear, such as, for example, sunglasses, may not be readily perceivable when the wearer is indoors. In some embodiments, a demonstration image is shown on an electronic display. In certain embodiments, the demonstration image can have a background portion, a wanted color portion, and unwanted color portion, and/or other portions that cooperate with an optical filter of the eyewear to simulate and/or emphasize the functionality of the eyewear when viewing real-world scenes.
