Hue Kolorize allows you to set your Hue lights to a dominant color extracted from several different sources such as a Raspberry Pi camera or what is being displayed on your computer screen. Dominant colors are extracted using KMeans clustering.
- You will need the IP address of your Hue bridge which can be found here.
- Create your
.envfile using the guide below. It should be placed in the root directory (see.env_example).
| Key | Info | Default | Example | Required |

Takes a screenshot of your main monitor in-memory and extracts the dominant color in a loop. Use cases: full immersion by setting the color to the current scene in a PC game or as general bias lighting.
Takes a screenshot in-memory using a Raspberry Pi camera and extracts the dominant color in a loop. Use cases: direct the camera module at the TV for matching the color of the current scene in a movie, TV show, or console game.
Tested with Raspberry Pi v3 Model B+ and Camera Module v2. Angle of view of the v2 camera is approximately 62 x 50 degrees.
Extracts the dominant color from a JPG image. Use the --path argument to specify the image path.
