For anyone who's ever wanted to try graffiti painting but is unsure of their own artistic skill level, the SprayPrinter is the ultimate device.
The SprayPrinter is a device that clips onto any ordinary spray can and turns it into a handheld printing machine. Under the control of the SprayPrinter, the spray can will emit dots of paint in exactly the correct places to create a perfect work of art -- with no actual graffiti painting skills necessary.
Using the SprayPrinter smartphone app, the user selects an image to turn into their own DIY mural. The app controls a nozzle attached to the opening of the spray can, telling it when to blast a dot of paint onto the wall. The SprayPrinter artist holds the can in position as it paints pixels to form a unique piece of art.
