what is a color meter?

Digital Color Meter is a utility for measuring and displaying the color values of pixels displayed on the screen of a Macintosh computer.The utility presents a "window" onto the screen which includes a cursor which by default is 1 × 1 pixel in size. The color displayed in that pixel is shown as a color value which may be represented as decimal or hexadecimal RGB triplets, CIE 1931, CIE 1976 or CIELAB triplets or a Tristimulus triplet.The displayed color could be copied either as a solid color or as the color value which represents it, to be used in other application.

The geometry of the measurement of these colors, with luminosity including a field of measurement of 8mm, allows for universal use for all types of materials. Furthermore, these devices are used by artisans, paint manufacturers, architects, painters and designers for testing colors or for establishing colors after mixing various colors.Below you will find some further information about our color meter products.
