This project allows for the manual "Mixing" of the primary colors—Red, Green, and Blue—to create millions of custom hues on a single RGB LED.
Triple-Analog Sampling: Uses three Potentiometers (R, G, and B). The Arduino reads the analog voltages (0-5V) and maps them to 8-bit PWM values (0-255).
PWM Intensity Control: The mapped values drive the individual channels of a Common-Cathode RGB LED. By varying the duty cycle of each pin, the user can see the physical blending of light waves in real-time.
Practical Application
Custom Lighting Prototype: Ideal for designers to "Lock-In" a specific color code (displayed on the Serial Monitor as Hex or RGB) for use in interior design or branding projects.
