## Abstract

A system for color selection is provided, including a gesture receiver, a color generator, a color mixer, a user interface, and a touchscreen. The gesture receiver receives a first touch point from the user interface via a touchscreen, the first touch point having a first initial location and a first current location. The color generator then generates a first color, either randomly or based on the first initial location. The gesture receiver then receives a second touch point from the user interface via the touchscreen, the second touch point having a second initial location and a second current location. The color generator then generates a second color based on the first color and a color optimizer. The color mixer then generates a mixed color based on the first color, the second color, the first initial location, the first current location, the second initial location, and the second current location.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system for color selection for an interactive lighting system, comprising:
a gesture receiver configured to:
receive a first touch point from a user interface, wherein the first touch point has a first initial location and a first current location; and
receive a second touch point from the user interface, wherein the second touch point has a second initial location and a second current location;
a color generator configured to:
generate a first color responsive to receiving the first touch point; and
generate a second color responsive to receiving the second touch point; and
a color mixer configured to generate a mixed color to be emitted by one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) of the interactive lighting system, wherein the mixed color is based on the first color, the second color, the first initial location, the first current location, the second initial location, and the second current location.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the user interface is configured to display the mixed color.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The system for color selection of claim 2, wherein the mixed color is displayed in a background portion of the user interface.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the user interface is configured to display the first color about the first touch point, and wherein the user interface is configured to display the second color about the second touch point.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the first touch point further has a first pressure, and wherein the second touch point further has a second pressure.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The system for color selection of claim 5, wherein the color mixer is configured to generate the mixed color further based on the first pressure and the second pressure.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the color generator is configured to generate the first color based on a random color generator.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the color generator is configured to generate the first color based on the first initial location.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the color generator is configured to generate the second color based on a random color generator.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the color generator is configured to generate the second color based on the first color and a color optimizer.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

The system for color selection of claim 1, wherein the user interface is displayed on a touchscreen.

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The system for color selection of claim 10, wherein the first touch point corresponds to a user touching the touchscreen with a first finger, and wherein the second touch point corresponds to the user touching the touchscreen with a second finger while the first finger remains in contact with the touchscreen.

### Claim 13

A method for color selection for an interactive lighting system, comprising:
receiving, via a gesture receiver, a first touch point from a user interface, wherein the first touch point has a first initial location and a first current location;
generating, via a color generator, a first color responsive to receiving the first touch point;
receiving, via the gesture receiver, a second touch point from the user interface, wherein the second touch point has a second initial location and a second current location;
generating, via the color generator, a second color responsive to receiving the second touch point, wherein the second color is based on the first color and a color optimizer; and
generating, via the color mixer, a mixed color to be emitted by one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) of the interactive lighting system, wherein the mixed color is based on the first color, the second color, the first initial location, the first current location, the second initial location, and the second current location.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The method of claim 13, further comprising:
displaying, via the user interface, the first color about the first touch point;
displaying, via the user interface, the second color about the second touch point; and
displaying, via the user interface, the mixed color in a background portion of the user interface.

### Claim 15 (depends on 13)

The method of claim 13, further comprising displaying, via a touchscreen, the user interface.
