Color Detection and Circuit Functionality

The video tutorial explains a simple circuit that differentiates between red and green colors using an LED and a photoresistor. It covers the principles of light reflection and absorption, the function of circuit components like the photoresistor and MOSFET, and demonstrates using a multimeter to measure resistance. The tutorial also discusses the application of this circuit in agriculture to detect ripe produce and provides guidance on circuit calibration. Additional resources and instructions are available for building the circuit.
