Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments provide a simple, inexpensive, and easy-to-operate color capture device that can capture color information and transmit the captured color information to an interface device such as smartphone, where the captured color information is optionally processed and is then transmitted to a remote server for subsequent production of the customized cosmetic.

Claim (Index 1):
A color capture device for use in characterizing color of a surface, the color capture device comprising:\n at least one LED capable of selectively producing red light, green light, and blue light; a light sensor circuit; a loop antenna; and a microcontroller having a timer circuit, the microcontroller comprising stored computer program instructions that, when executed on the microcontroller, causes the microcontroller to implement computer processes for a color capture sequence, the computer processes comprising: controlling at least one output pin on the microcontroller to produce the blue light from the at least one LED to illuminate the surface with the blue light; using the light sensor circuit and the timer circuit to take a blue light intensity measurement of the blue light reflected off of the surface with the blue light on including by measuring an amount of time for cumulative blue light intensity to reach a predetermined blue light level; controlling at least one output pin on the microcontroller to produce the green light from the at least one LED to illuminate the surface with the green light; using the light sensor circuit and the timer circuit to take a green light intensity measurement of the green light reflected off of the surface with the green light on including by measuring an amount of time for cumulative green light intensity to reach a predetermined green light level; controlling at least one output pin on the microcontroller to produce the red light from the at least one LED to illuminate the surface with the red light; using the light sensor circuit and the timer circuit to take a red light intensity measurement of the red light reflected off of the surface with the red light on including by measuring an amount of time for cumulative red light intensity to reach a predetermined red light level; formatting a message including color measurement information derived from the light intensity measurements; and controlling at least one output pin on the microcontroller to transmit the message electromagnetically using the loop antenna.
