Most of the bread board wires will be male-male, however a few male-female wires are also needed to connect the TCS3200. I bent one row of pins such that they can easily be inserted into the bread board making the TCS3200 board stand vertically. In this case we need the male-female wires to connect the upper row of pins with the bread board.

| Even though not strictly necessary for the final project we will also use an RGB LED. This will be used in an intermediate step where we will display the color read from the TCS3200 color sensor on this RGB LED. | ||||||||

| Since the Raspberry Pi GPIOs all work on 3.3V, the HC-SR04 as well as the TCS3200 however work with TTL (5V) logic, we need a level converter to bring down the sensor signal levels from 5V to 3.3V. This can be done either with a voltage divider using 2 resistors or with this level converter | ||||||||

In contrast to the photo a longer breadboard must be used in order to have enough space for the sensors. | ||||||||

It is better to use a plastic case for protection:
In addition to the processor board itself we need a 5V, 2.5 A power supply with micro USB connector
and a micro SD card for storage. This card will hold the operating system and all the user and system files.
In order to access external devices like our sensors a series of interfaces are available:
Now all we need are the sensors themselves and some connecting cables:
bread board wires
