ColorBUG

colorBUG is an ingenious, handheld wireless sensor that measures CIE color values and illuminance for use in a wide variety of applications. In concert with free software downloaded from the iTunes App Store, it allows users to wirelessly share data with their iPhone, iPod or iPad, making color analysis simple and convenient. Smaller than a typical mobile phone, colorBUG is completely portable and features a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery, 802.11g wireless connectivity and a sleek, rugged design.
