Color Sensor Subsystem Notes

The color sensor should be calibrated on the colors you'd like to detect in the position you'd detect them. Not calibrating the colors can result in getting odd results.

The surface you'd like to detect cannot be too glossy, or it will reflect the light from the white LED and you will also read white.

Notes on colors:

• Blue:
  • Is super easy to detect, has a much larger sweet spot than other colors
• Green:
  • Nothing to really note on
• Red:
  • Harder to detect, this has to be calibrated or you will probably get Yellow instead
• Yellow:
  • Sometimes it will read yellow when there is nothing in the sweet spot or you're just out of range of red. (Probably something to do with the room lighting since they're yellow)
