Is it as simple as converting a 16 bit value into an 8 bit value?

Thank I feel like we're getting closer. I want to display the lux values onto my personal site. So it will have to conform to css standards. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/RGB RGB are a 3 separate 8 bit integers. Is that enough information?

I will read up on luminosity more, I'm a little lost. I'm not used to viewing data sheets at all and my background is not in EE. But I'm trying to figure out the next steps given the data sheet.

Spec sheet for the sensor So my understanding is that lux takes into account the human response/perception of color so I don't need any correction (gamma?) for that. I see that the spec sheet includes min/max counts for RGB but I don't see any max voltage value.

I have an optical sensor that outputs 4 values in the following format: [ Red, Green, Blue, IR] where each value is in lux. I want to take this output and render a color on my pc. I'm not sure how to convert this into a regular RGB (0-255)/hexcolor value. Is there a good place to start? The data...
