I wanted to experiment with the RGB sensor. Once I translated the SDA and SCL ports from the sensor to the Featherboard pins, I began testing colors. I gathered the following results from samples at home (a shark's tooth, a ripe mango, my sweatshirt and my scarf.)

Below is a readout:

Here is how I interpreted the colors:

The next morning, I collected the bottom row of colors from the sun streaming in my window. I already knew from the previous night's experiments that my readings were muddy and that I would need to calibrate the sensor before collecting further readings. Still, I wanted to test collecting ambient color temperature instead of direct reflected light (how the sensor was intended to be used).
