Cobolt Talking Colour Detector
Overview
Short Description
A battery powered hand held device that detects and announces the colour of a surface it is pointed to. When switched on it beeps until placed on a surface with no light infiltrating the sensor. The device then announces basic colour and shade, for example, "very light blue" . This device has a wide range of useful applications from checking the colour of clothes to the ripeness of fruit while shopping.
Method Of Use
To use the detector, switch on the unit and remove the white cap. Now hold the unit against the colour you wish to determine. Wait for a few seconds and you should hear the voice tell you what it has seen. The detector will keep repeating the colour it has found until you turn off the device, or find something else to examine.
It is important to stress that you must try to cover the whole of the sensor if possible when detecting colours. The sensor area is surrounded by a rubberised edge to help you line up your object with the colour detector.

The Cobolt colour detector also contains a light probe. With the cap removed and the unit switched on, wave the sensor in the direction of a window or light bulb, and it will give intermittent beeps to indicate that it has detected light. It will not, however, increase as you get nearer to your source of light, but stops beeping when there is no light to be seen.
