Inkjet based pen – sample any and all colors! Scribblepen

Render - The Scribble Pen inside its customized case (via Scribblepen)


There is an innovative product about to hit the market, exclusively on Kickstarter, that may revolutionize the way we see and think about color. The Scribble Pen allows users to capture any color in the world around them or online, and use that color on paper, real-time. If you’re an artist, you may be salivating at the moment, as this is the first and only product of its kind.

 

The Scribble Pen is essentially a high-tech, compact, inkjet printer with an ARM 9 processor that allows you to duplicate the colors around you real-time. However, this little gadget goes well beyond the scope of what any printer can do.

 

The Scribble Pen’s ARM 9 processor allows it to gather and interpret data from the 16-bit RGB sensor. It then uses five refillable ink cartridges to duplicate the captured color and make it ready to use on paper, in moments. If that isn't cool enough, the Scribble Pen has 1GB of storage, a micro USB port, and features Bluetooth 4.0. Users can store up to 100,000 colors on the internal drive. They can also export their custom color palettes to any device with a micro USB port. Using Bluetooth, the Scribble Pen can sync directly to mobile devices via the Scribble+ mobile app.

 

Scribble is also offering a cheaper Scribble Stylus that allows you to capture colors using a 16-bit RGB sensor. Then, the stylus can draw digitally via a tablet or mobile device, ditching the paper and printing capabilities. For artistic purposes, scribble also offers a variety of pen tips to suit your artistic fancy.

 

All in all, the Scribble Pen and Scribble Stylus are the most vast, compact coloring-boxes in the world. The 16-bit RGB sensor and five refillable ink cartridges allows users to reproduce up to 16 million colors accurately. Can you imagine the size of that crayon box?

 

Whether you are a gadget connoisseur, on the hunt for a perfect birthday present for your niece or nephew, or a professional artist, the Scribble Pen is sure to impress.

 

A video of the Scribble Pen in action has yet to be released, so stay tuned for the launching of the Kickstarter campaign to see if this product lives up to the hype.

    It would be interesting to use the pen with an old style pen-plotter device.

    You could then capture signal intensity as well as position information over time to add an element of 3D with the device.
