electronic chameleon

hey..all of you know about the chameleons.yeay they have a special character to change their colour according to with the environments biologically this is known as mimicry. they use this ability to escape from predators and also to capture their prey.

so in this tutorial, I am replicate that ability electronically with the help of Arduino and colour sensor

please watch the making and working video first

now lets start

HOW ITS WORKS

with the help of tcs230 sensor we can read the reflected colour values of a surface  with that data we can control an RGB led 

components needed for this project

1.arduino nano

2.tcs 230 colour sensor

3.common cathode RGB led

4.jumper wires

5.breadboard

connections

Color Sensor      Arduino

 s0 = 8
 s1 = 9
 s2 = 12
s3= 11
greenLed = 3
blueLed  = 4
red Led  = d2
