TCS34725 Property "Tool Image" (as page type) with input value "File:{{{Picture}}}" contains invalid characters or is incomplete and therefore can cause unexpected results during a query or annotation process. {{{Picture}}} {{#if:No | [[Tool Owner::{{{ProjectParticipants}}} | }} {{#if:No | [[Tool Cost::{{{Cost}}} | }}

The TCS34725 is a light (and color) sensor. This sensor will be connected to ESP-home / hass to provide an indication of the illumination level at NurdSpace

This thing has an I2C interface and is already supported by ESP-home: https://esphome.io/components/sensor/tcs34725.html

The plan is to connect it to a Wemos D1 mini ESP8266 board.

Looks exactly like the Adafruit one: https://www.adafruit.com/product/1334
