HP has announced a new color matching technology that could change the way people shop for products that require color coordination, such as cosmetics. HP has developed a technology that uses sophisticated imaging algorithms and mobile networking to match colors that complement one another, including makeup specific to skin coloring. A shopper photographs herself using a mobile phone camera and while holding a specially designed color chart. The person then sends the photo to an advisory service. Skin pixels are extracted from the color corrected image of the person's face, and then compared to an existing database of previously captured and analyzed images of skin tones of real people. In a matter of seconds, people using the service receive a text message response with a recommendation on the shades of makeup that are best suited to their complexion.
