TCS3200D Colour Sensor Detection Module for Arduino AVR

Colour Detection Module for Microcontroller Projects This compact colour sensor module is built around the TCS3200D / TCS230 sensor and provides a straightforward way to add colour recognition to your microcontroller projects. The board measures just 31.5 x 24 mm, making it easy to integrate into compact builds, and weighs only 6g, so it adds negligible bulk to your setup. How It Works The module detects and distinguishes colours by measuring the intensity of light across different wavelengths. It outputs a frequency signal that your microcontroller can read to identify the colour of the surface or object placed in front of the sensor. This makes it suitable for applications such as colour sorting, line-following robots, and automated testing or quality checks. Build and Construction The module uses a PCB and metal construction, with a black main colour that gives it a clean, unobtrusive appearance. The compact footprint and lightweight design allow for flexible mounting in enclosures or directly onto prototyping boards. Package Contents Each order includes one colour sensor detection module as described. The board is ready to connect to your microcontroller, allowing you to begin experimenting with colour sensing straight away.
