DFRobot Gravity Analogue Greyscale Sensor for Arduino
Detect light levels black to white with this Arduino-compatible analogue sensor. Ideal for automatic lamps.
The DFRobot Gravity Analogue Greyscale Sensor is a simple module that measures light intensity across the spectrum from black to white. It combines a photocell (a light-controlled variable resistor) with an integrated white LED, enabling precise processing and analysis of greyscale light ranges.
This sensor is ideal for automatic lamps that need to switch on when ambient light drops to a certain level. With a wide voltage range of 3.3V to 5V and an analogue interface, it is suitable for a variety of electronic projects.
