Poor Man's Colour Detector (Part 2) - The project Reviewed by Unknown on 21:11 Rating: 4.5

Poor Man's Colour Detector (Part 2) - The project

Poor Man's Colour Detector (Part 2) - The project
In this project we will be detecting the colour of 3 different Mega Blok colours (Red, Yellow and Green). We will be using an Arduino UNO connected to  2 LEDs (one Yellow and one Red LED) as light detectors, and an RGB LED to illuminate the subject. We will use a Photocell to account for varying ambient light levels. 

The signals from the LED light sensors will be sent to a Processing.org program via a Serial command. The computer program will make use of my Neural Network to classify the pattern of results and hopefully provide the correct colour "answer". The program should change the colour of the computer screen background to coincide with the colour of the Mega Blok.
