Description: In today's colorful episode we will learn to calibrate and use the TCS230 and ISL29125 Color Sensors with an Arduino. Article with code at dronebotworkshop.com/arduino-color-sense More tutorials and projects at dronebotworkshop.com Discuss this on the Forum at forum.dronebotworkshop.com Join the newsletter - dronebotworkshop.com/subscribe Today we will be working with two different color sensors. I’ll show you how they work, how to hook them up, how to calibrate them, and how to extract RGB values from them. The TCS230 (also known as the TCS3200) is a popular and inexpensive color sensor that operates on a wide voltage range. It outputs a square wave whose frequency reflects the color intensity. The Sparkfun ISL29125 is a more capable sensor that provides a 16-bit digital output using the I2C bus. It also has a programmable interrupt feature that you can set to trigger in response to a specific color. Both of these sensors will be useful in designing color-following robots, Rubik's Cube solvers or jelly bean sorters. But before you use them you’ll need to calibrate them. I’ll show you how to calibrate the sensors and then use that calibration data to extract actual RGB values from them. Here is what we will be covering today: 00:00 - Introduction 01:15 - Color Sensor Operation 02:51 - TCS230 Intro 05:31 - TCS230 Arduino Hookup 06:18 - TCS230 Calibration 12:10 - TCS230 RGB Extract 17:26 - ISL29125 Intro 19:52 - ISL29125 Arduino Hookup 21:46- ISL29125 Library & Calibration 27:19 - ISL29125 RGB Extract You’ll find an accompanying article to this video at dbot.ws/color, along with all of the code I used. I hope that you enjoy this video and that it adds some color into your life! And if you have an idea for another video or article you can suggest it at dbot.ws/new. Thanks for watching!
