the relative drift from the standard to be monitored. The advantage is
that more color sensing can be economically distributed across the
target area. When a significant relative deviation is detected, an alert
signal can flag the absolute color sensor to take a reading in the sus-
pect area. If enough storage space is available in a central processing
computer, lookup tables can be constructed to relate the serially com-
municated color sensor readings to a standard color coordinate sys-
tem like the CIE system.
6.3.5 Color Sensor Algorithms
There are two internal software algorithms, or sets of rules, for ana-
lyzing fuzzy logic color sensor data:
