Object color, linked to a color picker, linked to a tracker?

Hello! I have tracked some panels on a piece of furniture that I want to change color to. When the camera moves, the panels change color ever so slightly due to the index of reflection and lighting and so on.

Now, instead of going all 3d and rendering out two polygons in Corona, I thought I'd just pick the color from a point that I like on the object, with some sort of "real time color picker". Is there a way for me to specify a point, track it using the tracker, get the color from it some way, and then use that color on the "background" node that I have probably amateurishly used to fill the corner positioning tracker with?

Thanks!

You can use the probe modifier to get your values. Attach the probe center in the modifier to your tracker to read the results.

Fantastic! Thank you very much!
I found a video on Vimeo () that describes the process too.
