Abstract
This invention provides a system and method for displaying color match information on an acquired image of an object. A model/pattern having a plurality of color test points at locations of stable color is provided. A display process generates visible geometric shapes with respect to the color test points in a predetermined color. An alignment process aligns features of the object with respect to features on the model so that the geometric shapes appear in locations on the object that correspond to locations on the model. The geometric shapes can comprise closed shapes that surround a region expected to be stable color on the object. Such shapes can define circles, squares, diamonds or any other acceptable closed or open shape that is visible to the user on the display.
