Colour is on the wall
X-Rite Europe has introduced a compact, handheld instrument, called Capsure, that lets users accurately image and measure the colours of walls, carpets or any textured inspiration object.
The device was developed to handle a wide range of material types, illustrations in magazines, textures and colours, even hard-to-measure surfaces such as textured walls and facades, carpets, fabrics with small patterns and open-weave textiles that can confound other instruments because of their textural complexity. For instance, it can extract up to four dominant colours from an intricate pattern so that the viewer can clearly identify the desired colour.
After a person has measured a colour they can record the date and time of measurement, image, text and voice dictation.
X-Rite product/market manager, Matthew Adby, said: Even professionals can become overwhelmed by the number of choices today in colour schemes. But customers know what colour they like when they see it on a wall, fence or even a room accessory or piece of clothing.”
