This Nix Mini 2 Color Sensor can scan and read the color of just about any surface—great for matching paint colors, like having a color-dropping tool in real life—and it’s on sale for $59.97 right now (reg. $99) until January 14. It was featured at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) this year and is a gadget assists designers, DIYers, and photographers working on home or art projects by simplifying color grabbing and matching. No two colors are quite the same when you're painting or doing a DIY project, and with the Nix Mini 2 you can scan a surface and get matches to brand-name paint colors or sRGB, HEX, CMYK, or LAB colors. The scanner works by sending the color information right to your phone via its app and makes it easy to organize your favorite colors or palettes for future reference—or share with friends or customers to get their opinions. The Nix Mini 2 makes accurate readings even if you’re in direct sunlight capturing the hue of a flower or in a dark room scanning a wall, and it blocks out ambient light and uses its own pre-calibrated light source.
You can get the Nix Mini 2 Color Sensor on sale for $59.97 right now (reg. $99) until January 14 at 11:59 p.m. PT, though prices may change at any time.
