  • Dynamic generation of custom color selections
    Patent number: 11741640
    Abstract: A computer system for dynamic generation of custom color selections receives from a user an indication of a target color. The computer system also identifies a location of the target color within a mathematically-defined color space. The computer system identifies a location of a second color within the mathematically-defined color space. Additionally, the computer system generates a first golden triangle within the mathematically-defined color space. The location of the target color comprises a first vertex of the first golden triangle. The location of the second color comprises a second vertex of the first golden triangle. A location of a third color comprises a third vertex of the first golden triangle. The computer system then displays on a user interface an indication of the target color, the second color, and the third color.
