The ColorBUG from Ocean Optics is a miniature colorimeter which measures the illuminance and colour of your light source then beams the data via its built-in wireless transmitter to your iPhone or iPod Touch (which are available separately).
The ColorBUG is an ingenious, handheld wireless device for testing the colour and illuminance in theatrical studio and architectural applications. ColorBUG is the pocket-sized marvel no bigger than a typical mobile phone that works wirelessly with iPhone and iPod Touch to determine CIE chromaticity and illuminance values easily and quickly. ColorBUG is used with exclusive software for your iPhone or iPod Touch that you download for free from the iTunes Apps Store.
Illuminance is measured in the range from 0.1 to 15,000 lux, while light source colour is reported in CIE x and CIE y (1931) chromaticity coordinates and correlated colour temperature. ColorBUG is equipped with a built-in lithium ion battery which charges through a mini USB interface. The wireless interface is 802.11 a/b/g compatible.
