RGBW Color Sensor (VEML6040)

⏳ This item is currently sold out — a new batch is on its way and will be available soon!

Add precise RGBW color sensing to any project with this module built around the VEML6040. Measure red, green, blue, and white light channels with 16-bit resolution, perfect for color matching, ambient light detection, or display calibration. Two onboard STEMMA QT connectors let you daisy-chain I²C devices. An ENABLE pin gives you hardware control to disable the sensor when needed, handy since the VEML6040's I²C address is fixed and can't be changed. There's also an onboard LED you can toggle for extra illumination in low-light scenarios. Drop it into any backplane and start reading color data in minutes with Arduino IDE, MicroPython, or MicroBlocks. Use it standalone with any microcontroller, or snap it into the Genesis Modular system from Axiometa for plug-and-play integration. Works with Arduino IDE, MicroPython, or MicroBlocks.
