Basic Examples

In[1]:=
ResourceData[\!\(\* TagBox["\"\<LEGO Colors\>\"", #& , BoxID -> "ResourceTag-LEGO Colors-Input", AutoDelete->True]\), "Dataset"]
Out[1]=

Scope & Additional Elements (1) 

Return the colors as a list of rules:

In[2]:=
ResourceData[\!\(\* TagBox["\"\<LEGO Colors\>\"", #& , BoxID -> "ResourceTag-LEGO Colors-Input", AutoDelete->True]\), "ColorRules"]
Out[2]=

Visualizations (2) 

Visualize the LEGO colors in a chromatic diagram:

In[3]:=
ChromaticityPlot[Normal[ResourceData[\!\(\* TagBox["\"\<LEGO Colors\>\"", #& , BoxID -> "ResourceTag-LEGO Colors-Input", AutoDelete->True]\)][All, "Color"]]]
Out[3]=

A test image:

In[4]:=
img = ExampleData[{"TestImage", "Peppers"}]
Out[4]=

Convert the image to a mosaic that would fit on a 48×48 LEGO baseplate, with colors replaced by LEGO colors:

In[5]:=
legoColors = ResourceData[\!\(\* TagBox["\"\<LEGO Colors\>\"", #& , BoxID -> "ResourceTag-LEGO Colors-Input", AutoDelete->True]\), "ColorRules"]; ColorQuantize[ImageResize[img, Scaled[48/Max[ImageDimensions[img]]]], Values[legoColors]]
Out[6]=
