Is there any FRC-legal sensor capable of distinguishing a red frisbee from a blue frisbee from a white frisbee? Preferably independent of venue lighting.
A camera would work and this color sensor is legal since it’s on FIRST Choice.

Don’t have any experience with it though.
Is there a way to interface with the color sensor in programming? Or would we have to create our own class for it?
you can use a mindstorms color sensor plugged into the i2c port they work very well
I see a new class for it in C++, I’d imagine Java has it also. I’m not sure if the LabVIEW equivalent is functions on the palette or an example, but I’d bet heavily that it’s there.
