Accurate Scans on Sheen

The human eye is able to see how color is affected by various levels of sheen. When light shines on a glossy surface it can make it appear to have different hues, some darker or lighter than others. However, when finding the right paint for a room, it is impossible for our eyes to see what the true color is. That’s where our Spectro 1 Pro comes to the rescue. It is able to see the actual color of a wall even if there is a sheen, helping you get the right color every time!

Connectivity

The Spectro by Variable app combines Spectro 1 Pro’s compact, portable design with patent-pending technology in a convenient, efficient, and highly accurate color matching system that works with smartphones. This allows users to easily measure, save, and share powerful color data. When companies join Variable Cloud, they can then upload local standards for use on all devices.

Cutting Edge

Though small, the Spectro 1 Pro is not just another colorimeter. This sleek, compact, and affordable spectrophotometer uses multiple light sources and sophisticated matching algorithms to produce exact color matches, reflectance curve data, and detailed color data with every scan.

Revolutionary

No longer are companies and consumers required to spend thousands of dollars on purchasing and maintaining large and cumbersome spectrophotometers. With revolutionary advances in color communication technology, we’ve harnessed the accuracy of benchtop machines to provide a tool that can be used both behind the counter and with the customer for only $299.
