designed-for-life:

Jinsun Park has designed the Color Picker concept, a marker that is made with a color sensor and ink cartridges.

When you spot a color that you would like to use in the real world, simply scan the sample with one end of the pen, which will detect the color and use the RGB cartridge to mix the necessary inks to produce the target colour.

Absolutely rad.
