Farbprobe

Farbprobe is a color analysis tool developed by the Pantone company, a well-known provider of color management solutions. The tool is intended to help users identify and communicate colors more effectively.

The Farbprobe consists of a color-detecting pen and a software application that can be used on various devices. The pen itself is designed to capture the color of a surface by estimating its color values. The application then receives this data through a communication link and can display the detected color on the device screen.

The purpose of Farbprobe is primarily aimed at helping designers, artists, and others in the creative industries to communicate color effectively. This can be especially useful when working on color-sensitive projects, such as graphic design, printing, and textile design, where small changes in color values can significantly affect the final product's appearance.

Users can use Farbprobe to capture colors from various sources, including products, artwork, and surroundings. This information can be used to choose colors for design projects or to compare colors between different reference materials.

In terms of technical specifications, Farbprobe uses an electro-optical system to detect color, which allows it to capture colors quickly and accurately. The tool also offers advanced features like hue and saturation analysis, allowing users to analyze colors in more detail.
