TCS3472 RGB Light Color Sensor With Arduino

Use the TCS3472 light color sensor with your Arduino for color recognition projects

The TCS3472 is a color/light recognition IC that can be paired with an Arduino to recognize colors and also provide a measurement of light intensity. This has various applications e.g. sorting of different colored product, light color measurement, health or fitness products etc.

In this project, a TCS3472 is used to detect color swatches and light up a RGB LED with the same color.

Supplies
Here are the major components for this project

- Arduino Uno
- TCS3472 RGB Light Sensor
- Black Box
- Connectors and Resistors”
