Adafruit VEML6070 UV Index Sensor Breakout [AF-2899]
$1510This little sensor is a great way to add UV light sensing to any microcontroller project. The VEML6070 from Vishay has a true UV A light sensor and an I2C-controlled ADC that will take readings and integrate them for you over ~60ms to ...

Photo Transistor Light Sensor [AF-2831]
Photo Transistor $212Get it by Tuesday, Dec 12th
This Photo Transistor Light Sensor is a simple sensor that detects ambient light. It's kind of the opposite of an LED - when light hits the little chip inside, it induces current to flow from the long pin to the short pin. This sensor ...

Adafruit ALS-PT19 Analog Light Sensor Breakout [AF-2748]
$563Get it by Thursday, Dec 21st
Add a teeny analog light sensor, the ALS PT19 analog light sensor is a great way to upgrade a project that uses a photocell and needs RoHS compliance. Due to the high rejection ratio of infrared radiation, the spectral response of the am...

VCNL4010 Proximity/Light sensor [AF-466]
Proximity/Light sensor $1692Get it by Thursday, Dec 21st
The VCNL4010 sensor is a nice way to add a small-distance proximity sensor to your microcontroller project. For longer distances (in the range of cm, you can use a SHARP IR distance sensor, but those are only good if the object is over...

Reflective IR Sensor with 470 and 10K Resistors [AF-2349]
$439Get it by Thursday, Dec 21st
This Reflective IR Sensor is a simple plastic casing with two elements - an IR LED and an IR phototransistor. You can control the IR LED and turn it on to bounce IR off objects to determine their reflectivity. White & light colored stuff...
