/*
  Serial RGB controller

 Reads a serial input string looking for three comma-separated
 integers with a newline at the end. Values should be between
 0 and 255. The sketch uses those values to set the color
 of an RGB LED attached to pins 9 - 11.

 The circuit:
 * Common-anode RGB LED cathodes attached to pins 9 - 11
 * LED anode connected to pin 13

 To turn on any given channel, set the pin LOW.
 To turn off, set the pin HIGH. The higher the analogWrite level,
 the lower the brightness.

Here's a Processing sketch that will draw a color wheel and send a serial
 string with the color you click on:

 // Subtractive Color Wheel with Serial
 // Based on a Processing example by Ira Greenberg.
 // Serial output added by Tom Igoe
 //
 // The primaries are red, yellow, and blue. The secondaries are green,
 // purple, and orange. The tertiaries are  yellow-orange, red-orange,
 // red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green, and yellow-green.
 //
 // Create a shade or tint of the subtractive color wheel using
 // SHADE or TINT parameters.

 // Updated 29 November 2010.
