Apple Pencil will be able to detect colors in the real world?

This is indicated by a patent application that describes a “computer stylus” that may be equipped with a “color sensor”. As a result, Apple Pencil can be used to determine the colors of objects in the real world. Just like in graphic editors the eyedropper is used. You can, for example, define the color of a flower and then use it in your digital art. The specific color is added to the palette in the paint application.

As is usually the case with patents, there is no telling how quickly the development will be implemented on a commercial level or whether it will even make it to store shelves.
