Has anyone here taken this test?
I have taken the test, but not administered it. You get three principal
results: a overall numeric metric, a classification of your vision into
a certain group (using the metric against a dataset of previous results)
and a visualisation of in what areas of the colour space your vision is
good and bad.

In what ways was the the experience useful?
We find it very useful, in combination with the colour blindness test,
for assessing people's suitability for certain colour critical work.

How can I find someone in the Northeast that will administer the test?
Can't help you there. Vision or colour science department of your local
university?
