About Color Picker from Image
The Color Picker from Image lets you sample any pixel in an uploaded photo and instantly get its HEX, RGB, and HSL color codes. Click anywhere on the image to add colors to your personal palette.
The tool also automatically extracts the dominant colors from the image using a k-means clustering algorithm — great for creating color schemes from photos. All processing runs locally in your browser using the Canvas API.
