RGB Color Sensor TCS34725 with IR Filter and LED

The TCS34725 measures the RGB colour values of an object, with a filter blocking infrared. An LED on the module illuminates the object so that the colours are determined cleanly. It can be switched on and off by the program, for example only for the measurement. The module works with 3.3 V to 5 V and therefore also suits Raspberry Pi, ESP8266 and ESP32. Communication runs over the I2C bus.
