Re: New guy needs some direction please!...

This could probably be done fairly easily with an Arduino. You'd just need a color sensor and the stylus could be on a servo. Program it so when it sees a color, the servo moves to tap the screen, then back to its original position. I haven't worked with color sensors, but servos are easy to use with Arduinos. This is a good place to get help, and I'm sure others will chime in! Most of the people here are nice and helpful. Here's something I made using a RedBoard Arduio and the servo linked above.
