This Handy Gizmo Lets You Scan Any Surface or Object Around You To Find Its Paint Color Match
If you've ever used Adobe Photoshop, you're probably familar with the eyedropper tool. This handy tool lets users sample a color from an image for further use by providing the color's hex code and adding it to the paint palette. It's perfect for all those times you're poking around the Internet and stumble upon a shade that you'd just love to incorporate into your own graphic design projects.

As written in the description on The Home Depot's website, this neat little gizmo can "accurately grab the perfect paint color or exact digital color data from anything around you." Yes, anything!
