Camera Trace & Sketch — trace coloring pages on real paper

What is Camera Trace & Sketch?

Camera Trace & Sketch uses your phone or laptop camera to project a coloring page onto real paper. You see the outline through your screen and trace it with real crayons, markers, or colored pencils. No app download needed — works right in your browser.

AR stands for Augmented Reality — it overlays digital content onto the real world through your camera. On Koloring.ai, we use this to let kids trace professional coloring pages onto any paper at home.

How to Use Camera Trace & Sketch on Koloring.ai

Step 1: Choose a coloring page from our library of 418+ pages.

Browse by category — we have cat coloring pages, unicorn coloring pages, dinosaur coloring pages, and 51 more categories.

Step 2: Place a blank piece of paper on a flat, well-lit surface.

White paper works best. Avoid glossy paper — matte absorbs crayon and marker better.

Step 3: Open Camera Trace & Sketch and point your camera at the paper.

The coloring page will project onto the paper through your screen. Adjust the opacity slider to make the lines lighter or darker.

Step 4: Trace the outline with real crayons.

Follow the projected lines with any coloring tool — crayons, colored pencils, markers, or even watercolors. The result is a hand-drawn coloring page that looks professional.

Best Coloring Pages for AR Tracing

Some pages work better for AR tracing than others. Look for:
