.:RGB LEDs:.
We've blinked an LED and controlled eight in sequence now
it's time to control color. Using an RGB LED (actual 3 LEDs
in a single housing) we can generate any color our heart
desires. We do this through color mixing, what’s required is
delving back to your elementary art days of playing with colored cellophane to produce
different colors (if you can’t remember that far back don’t worry here’s a color wheel to
help you out).
