I²C Red-Green-Blue LED BlinkM

The BlinkM includes a red-green-blue LED that can display virtually any colour.

The new release of the driver offers an increased stability. It relies on 16-bits commands and data and prevents the BlinkM module from hanging.

The BlinkM interferes with other I²C devices placed on the same bus. Use BlinkM alone.
