Re: Light RGB Sensor

Just be aware that the sensor you linked to is small and not an imager. That is, it essentially senses one pixel. So, if you wanted to "find" an orange cone, you'd really have to so some fancy mechanical tricks so that it pointed right at the cone.

The CMUcam, on the other hand, is a camera. It will tell you the size and centroid of an object of a certain color within its field of vision. This can be very useful for locating objects.
