Color Sensor - Delay (millis)

hello,
im working color sensors, , want them run commands when right color found.

a setup picture can found here:

as seen on photo lego brick has color want meassure.

the code:

code: [select]

const int s0 = 8; 
const int s1 = 9; 
const int s2 = 12; 
const int s3 = 11; 
const int out = 10;   
int currentstate = 1;
unsigned long t[10];

// variables 
int red = 0; 
int green = 0; 
int blue = 0; 
   
void setup()   
{ 
  serial.begin(9600);
  pinmode(s0, output); 
  pinmode(s1, output); 
  pinmode(s2, output); 
  pinmode(s3, output); 
  pinmode(out, input); 

  digitalwrite(s0, high); 
  digitalwrite(s1, high); 
} 
   
void loop()
{ 
  if (currentstate == 1){
    color();
    serial.print(" red intensity: "); 
    serial.print(red, dec);     
    serial.print("   |   green intensity: "); 
    serial.print(green, dec); 
    serial.print("   |   blue intensity: "); 
    serial.print(blue, dec);   
    //serial.println();   
   
   
    if (red < blue && red < green && green > 13 && blue > 10 && green < 20 && red < 10){ 
       
        t[0]=millis();
        t[1]=millis()-t[0];
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println(" --------------------------------- (red color) --------------------------------- ");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        currentstate = 0;
       
    }
        if (t[1] == 5000){
          currentstate = 1;
         
       
        }
         
       
     
     
   
      else if (red < green && green > 14 && blue > 9 && red > 9)   
      { 
       serial.println(" - (blue color)");   
      } 
   
      else if (red < blue && red < green && green < 13 && blue > 10) 
      { 
       serial.println(" - (yellow color)"); 
      }
      else{
      serial.println();
      }
     
  }
 } 
 
   
void color() 
{   
  digitalwrite(s2, low); 
  digitalwrite(s3, low); 
  //count out, pred, red 
  red = pulsein(out, digitalread(out) == high ? low : high); 
  digitalwrite(s3, high); 
  //count out, pblue, blue 
  blue = pulsein(out, digitalread(out) == high ? low : high); 
  digitalwrite(s2, high); 
  //count out, pgreen, green 
  green = pulsein(out, digitalread(out) == high ? low : high); 
}

the code on want focus:

code: [select]

void loop()
{ 
  if (currentstate == 1){
    color();
    serial.print(" red intensity: "); 
    serial.print(red, dec);     
    serial.print("   |   green intensity: "); 
    serial.print(green, dec); 
    serial.print("   |   blue intensity: "); 
    serial.print(blue, dec);   
    //serial.println();   
   
   
    if (red < blue && red < green && green > 13 && blue > 10 && green < 20 && red < 10){ 
       
        t[0]=millis();
        t[1]=millis()-t[0];
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println(" --------------------------------- (red color) --------------------------------- ");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        serial.println("");
        currentstate = 0;
       
    }
        if (t[1] == 5000){
          currentstate = 1;
         
       
        }
         
       
     
     
   
      else if (red < green && green > 14 && blue > 9 && red > 9)   
      { 
       serial.println(" - (blue color)");   
      } 
   
      else if (red < blue && red < green && green < 13 && blue > 10) 
      { 
       serial.println(" - (yellow color)"); 
      }
      else{
      serial.println();
      }
     
  }
 } 

i have far tried add commands box lego brick, , there problem.
when currentstate 1 serial communication continuously tell me color values sensor seeing, , senses red lego brick tell me has been found, , 5 seconds later should try sense brick.

how around doing this? ive tried millis worked me before in project. not want use delay command.

an example code of serial communication:

code: [select]

red intensity: 3   |   green intensity: 6   |   blue intensity: 4
 red intensity: 3   |   green intensity: 4   |   blue intensity: 4
 red intensity: 2   |   green intensity: 4   |   blue intensity: 4
 red intensity: 2   |   green intensity: 3   |   blue intensity: 3
 red intensity: 1   |   green intensity: 2   |   blue intensity: 2
 red intensity: 1   |   green intensity: 2   |   blue intensity: 2
 red intensity: 1   |   green intensity: 2   |   blue intensity: 2
 red intensity: 2   |   green intensity: 3   |   blue intensity: 2
 red intensity: 2   |   green intensity: 2   |   blue intensity: 3
 red intensity: 2   |   green intensity: 4   |   blue intensity: 3
 red intensity: 3   |   green intensity: 4   |   blue intensity: 4
 red intensity: 6   |   green intensity: 8   |   blue intensity: 8
 red intensity: 8   |   green intensity: 15   |   blue intensity: 14




 --------------------------------- (red color) ---------------------------------





thanks in advance.

that code not easy follow....
