Part Research Entry 1

In executing this project my goal is color precsion on input and output. the way forward that was suggested initally was using an array of three photoresistors with an R G and B color seperation gels over each one. the issue with this though is that a value for luminance is needed for a proper color balance reading. I am researching a variety of sensors. The Avago seems like the best fit so far. The input/output is all through serial commands. The sensor is tiny and it averages the sensor readings before sending the resultant data out. The only thing I am a bit dim on at the moment is how exactly the outgoing data is formatted.
-Stay tuned.
