Summary
The circuit in question is designed to interface various sensors and modules with an ESP32 microcontroller. The components include a TCS3200 color sensor, an IR sensor, an HX711 bridge sensor interface, and a load cell. The ESP32 serves as the central processing unit, handling inputs from the sensors and potentially providing outputs based on the sensor data. The TCS3200 is used for detecting color, the IR sensor for detecting proximity or motion, and the load cell, in conjunction with the HX711, for measuring weight or force.

Documented Code
ESP32 Microcontroller Code (sketch.ino)
void setup() {
}
void loop() {
}
This code is a template for the ESP32 microcontroller. The setup()
function is called once when the microcontroller is powered on or reset. It is used to initialize variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The loop()
function is called repeatedly and contains the main logic of the code. It is where the microcontroller will read sensor data, perform calculations, and control other devices.
The actual implementation details will depend on the specific requirements of the application, such as how the sensors are to be read, what conditions are being monitored, and how the ESP32 should respond to different sensor inputs.
