Build a Color Detector That Lights Up Matching LEDs - Arduino Uno & TCS3200 Starter Kit

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

Place a red, green, or blue object in front of the TCS3200 sensor, and a matching LED instantly lights up. This kit transforms a simple Arduino circuit into a real-world color identifier that you can adapt for object sorting, interactive displays, or STEM demonstrations. No prior coding experience needed - the wiring is straightforward, the code is pre-written, and the AI companion walks you through every step.

What You'll Build

A fully functional color detector that reads an object's color using the TCS3200 sensor and illuminates a red, green, or blue LED accordingly. You'll have a working circuit on a breadboard, plus the confidence to modify the detection thresholds for new colors or connect additional outputs like buzzers or motors.

What You'll Learn

• How the TCS3200 color sensor converts light frequencies into RGB values
• Interfacing the sensor with Arduino Uno and reading its output pins
• Controlling multiple LEDs based on real-time sensor data
• Building and debugging circuits on a breadboard with resistors and jumper wires

Why Buy This Kit Instead of Sourcing Parts Separately

Who This Kit Is For

Designed for CBSE Class 5-10 students exploring sensor-based projects, ATL Tinkering Lab setups, and young hobbyists aged 5-15 who want a structured first step into Arduino. B.Tech first-year students in ECE or EEE will also find it a quick, hands-on way to demonstrate color sensor interfacing for lab submissions or hackathon prototypes.

Built and Backed by Compoden

Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
