ColorPicker helps you sample colors from a live camera preview or a photo, then turn that color into practical values for design, paint, code, and sharing. Features: - live camera color picking - photo-based sampling with precise repositioning - white or neutral reference calibration to compensate for lighting in camera and photo picks - formats that travel: RGB, RGB Hex, W3C, RAL, CMY, CMYK, HSV, LAB, LCH, and XYZ - harmony at a glance with complementary, analogous, split-complementary, and triad sets - save, load, copy, deep-link, and email useful color values ColorPicker is built for quick, everyday color decisions by designers, developers, artists, and anyone matching colors from physical objects, inspiration photos, or real-world scenes. Calibration is useful when the same lighting makes a white or neutral reference appear tinted: set the reference, then keep picking under that lighting with a corrected reading. (The color detection generally depends on the used camera and surrounding light conditions)

The App aims to promote relaxation of tensed muscles. It has been observed in experiments that when tensed muscles are loosened many pains diminished specially in the lower limbs. The App is for use by club members only who will be given individual mantra in confidence. Two months after launch in the App Store new members will be invited via YouTube. The blue circle has calming effect while the mantra is for concentration so the mind does not wander to other thoughts. The state of relaxation is achieved by 20 to 30 minutes meditation. In a quiet dimly lit space the member who is seated will stare at the blue circle for two minutes. Then he will close his eyes and start chanting the mantra. Slowly the muscles will slacken. Results will vary. There is no political, religious or medical agenda involved. Disclaimer : This app is not intended for any kind of Medical treatment and is only for helping in better meditation. Please always take Doctor's advice in addition to using this app and before making any medical decisions.
