For this project I wanted to test the limits of the gameboy camera. First releasing in 1998 for the nintendo gameboy, allowed for users to take black and white photos using a 128×128 pixel CMOS sensor.
Even if the gameboy camera can only produce black and white photos, there is a way to produce colour images. This is done using a method called colour trichome. By taking 3 photos of the same thing with a red, blue, and green filter over each image allows for you to combine each RGB channels in photoshop to produce a colour image. Resulting in the ones below.
