Would it be possible to have a standard glass, fill it with beer and have your camera (webcam or mobile phone) take a picture and measure the colour to create a way of knowing what your actual EBC really is.

Would imagine its really easy to do as there are apps already that do this for other things (like the paint analysis tools)!
 
I can't imagine any accuracy as it is totally dependent on the lighting.
I am curious what others may have to say. It certainly would be handy.
 
I know that the paint system must be very accurate as they have very small differences. You would have to place the camera against the glass and the flash would light up the beer. I use my iPhone to take my pulse and that's almost impossible to know how it detects such small changes.
