/**************************************************************** ColorSensor.ino APDS-9960 RGB and Gesture Sensor Shawn Hymel @ SparkFun Electronics October 15, 2014 https://github.com/sparkfun/APDS-9960_RGB_and_Gesture_Sensor Tests the color and ambient light sensing abilities of the APDS-9960. Configures APDS-9960 over I2C and polls the sensor for ambient light and color levels, which are displayed over the serial console. Hardware Connections: IMPORTANT: The APDS-9960 can only accept 3.3V! Arduino Pin APDS-9960 Board Function 3.3V VCC Power GND GND Ground A4 SDA I2C Data A5 SCL I2C Clock Resources: Include Wire.h and SparkFun_APDS-9960.h Development environment specifics: Written in Arduino 1.0.5 Tested with SparkFun Arduino Pro Mini 3.3V This code is beerware; if you see me (or any other SparkFun employee) at the local, and you've found our code helpful, please buy us a round!
