Abstract: Systems and methods include a server configured to provide an application to a remote computing device. The application displays a project image including a photo of a paintable structure and a hot spot located at a predefined location within the project image and configured to draw attention by at least one of blinking, pulsing, and enlarging. The application displays a first link and a second link in response to a cursor being controlled to touch or roll over the hot spot. The application displays at least one of a color name and a color number associated with a paint color at the predefined location of the hot spot in response to receiving input selecting the first link, and displays a color summary including a list of paint colors used in the project image in response to receiving input selecting the second link.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed and include at least one light-emitting diode (LED) array, and each LED of the at least one LED array is associated with a respective paint color chip location of a display assembly. The system also includes an LED control circuit in communication with each LED and a processor configured to execute instructions stored in a nontransitory memory. The instructions include, in response to receiving an input corresponding to a selection of a first paint color chip: determining a first paint color chip location within the display assembly based on the first paint color chip; identifying an LED of the at least one LED array, wherein the LED is associated with the first paint color chip location; and transmitting an activation signal to the LED control circuit to activate the LED and illuminate the first paint color chip location.

Abstract: A method for a user to paint an image includes generating a display of a room image uploaded by the user. The method also includes employing a straight-line masking tool to block off a first area of the room image with a straight line such that color will not be applied to the first area when color is applied to a second area of the room image. The method also includes employing a polygon masking tool to draw at least three lines to mask off a selected polygon area of the room image such that color can be applied by the user to an inside of the selected polygon area when the user selects the inside of the selected polygon area and an outside of the selected polygon area when the user selects the outside of the selected polygon area.

Abstract: Systems and methods include a server configured to provide a web site application to a remote computing device over the Internet. The remote computing device receives user input to control a cursor. The web site application is configured to enable the remote computing device to display a plurality of color sheen chips on a display of the remote computing device, each color sheen chip representing a different color sheen. The web site application is configured to enlarge a particular color sheen chip of the plurality of color sheen chips on the display when the cursor hovers over the particular color sheen chip and to toggle the color sheen chip left and right when the cursor is moved back and forth over the particular color sheen chip.

Abstract: A user-facing front end screen display of an illustrative digital image painting application includes a bucket tool which enables a user to apply a selected color to a selected area of an uploaded digital image such as a wall of a room, a paint brush tool to fill in missed areas, an eraser tool is to remove misapplied color, masking tools to mask off selected areas, and a tolerance slider tool to assist in properly filling in painted areas. Improved image preprocessing methods enable better definition of areas of the image to be painted the same color.

Abstract: An automated method and apparatus for providing color selection capability to a user wherein a first display is generated on a display apparatus of an array of color family groups disposed in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns. Upon selection of a particular color family group, a second display is generated comprising an enlarged display of a particular selected color family group and a reduced size miniature version of the array of color family groups. A third display may further be generated in response to selection of a color chip on the second display during which generation a color chip selected on the second display is caused to appear in an enlarged form in the third display.
