Review on ACROBOTIC TCS3200 Recognition Breakout Raspberry by Mike Fedd

Revainrating 1 out of 5

It's not good enough when there are so many options.

LEDs are much higher than most, so they can't sit very close to the colors you're trying to read. It's also very badly marked. Each circuit for each project gives all the pinouts, and HALF the pins aren't labeled at all, so I have no idea how to connect them. The website of the company that did this (Acrobot) doesn't have a search function to try and track down the diagram and the contact page isn't available. It was a waste of time I now have to return for the correctly labeled one from a company that has some sort of support.

Pros
  • pinout (8 pins) for reading the output (OUT), selecting the output frequency by color (S2, S3), setting the output scaling (S0, S1) and turning on the LEDs on the board (LED)
Cons
  • garden tool
