NCS Colour Scan 2.0 introduces new technology through a powerful, portable colour measurement tool - developed by X-rite in cooperation with NCS Colour AB. It offers a range of new features to help the user accurately read, use and implement colour, and now isolates colours within a multi-coloured pattern for developing matching or complementary colour palettes.

Lightweight, easy to use and infinitely adaptable, NCS Colour Scan 2.0 gives the NCS Notation of a selected colour from any surface. You can identify colours on walls, render, carpets, furniture, flooring, and clothing.

• The built-in pinpoint screen can isolate colours from the smallest of patterns.
• Features memory for storing up to 100 colours and lets users add text or voice tags to each entry.
• Displays colour translation information into RGB and CMYK in seconds, and gives the colour’s availability and location in the NCS Index and Exterior.
• Reads lightness and LRV.
• Suggests similar colours to help create combinations on-the-go.

This is a new, revolutionary, handheld colour measurement tool with absolute accuracy.
