One of the most important tools every artist has is color. With colors you can convey a mood, the time of day, emotion on someones face, beauty, and so much more. Getting just the right color can make all the difference. Of course, color is all around us, but translating it into digital form can be hard sometimes. What if you could simply use the color picker tool in real life?

That is exactly what the Mozbii stylus does. All you do is hold the stylus over an object and it instantly identifies the color and allows you to use that color in the companion app. It really is amazing. This is the type of thing you see in a sci-fi movie. Drawing a picture of your car? Can’t find that perfect shade of blue? Just scan it! Drawing a self-portrait but can’t find your unique skin color? Scan your arm! Bring the real world into your drawings.

This device is currently being funded onKickstarter. So far they’ve raised well over their $30,000 goal. For just $64 you can get a Mozbii color capturing stylus. There will be a companion Android app once the stylus is released. If you’re into art and drawing you should definitely check out this cool gadget.
