See Colors with the Adafruit TCS34725, an Arduino and a Pi 3

This toy project uses the TCS34725 to read the color of Lego bricks, and uses a Raspberry Pi UWP C# application to say the color.
I recently bought the Adafruit TCS34725 breakout board, which senses colors, and I wanted to build a project to kick the tires. The most colorful thing that I know of my our house is my baby daughter’s box of Lego. I thought it would be a nice test of the hardware to check if it could recognise the colors, and if I could use the color information with my Raspberry Pi to say what colors that the TCS34725 breakout board sees.”
