Hi, i trying to teach pixy a green or other color but when it learn it, it “recognize” green where is white

This can be pretty confusing, agreed. What’s happening is that the “Min saturation” value is set too low and creating lots of false positives. There is some more information here:

Setting “Min saturation” to a higher value will help, but this situation usually arises when the object you are teaching Pixy is somewhat unsaturated. OR the brightness parameter is too low. Take a look at the object you want to teach in Raw mode. Does it appear dark? If so, try increasing the brightness parameter.

thanks!
