SKU: EF-EF04092 | Brand: ElecFreaks

The Octopus Light Sensor Brick reads the ambient light level of its surrounding environment and outputs an analog signal. The 3-pin GVS connector makes it easy to plug into micro:bit expansion boards, Arduino, and oth...

SKU: AF-4162 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit VEML7700 is a high-accuracy ambient light sensor from Vishay that outputs calibrated lux values over I2C. Unlike basic light sensors that return unitless brightness readings, the VEML7700 calculates lux (...

SKU: LB-LS0239 | Brand: Little Bird

This e-textiles ambient light sensor uses the TEMT6000 phototransistor to detect light levels. Designed for wearable electronics, it features a compact 20 mm round PCB that's only 0.8 mm thick — thin enough to sew int...

SKU: DF-SEN0390 | Brand: DFRobot

A high-precision ambient light sensor housed in a transparent semisphere case for optimal light-gathering performance. With a wide 0–200 klx detection range and I2C communication, this sensor is ideal for applications...

SKU: SF-BOB-08688 | Brand: SparkFun

Basic breakout board for the TEMT6000 Ambient Light Sensor. Only what you need, nothing you don’t. Sensor acts like a transistor - the greater the incoming light, the higher the analog voltage on the signal pin. Docu...

SKU: LB-LS1177 | Brand: Little Bird

Laser Detector Module Want to set up your own laser tripwire? These little modules make it super simple. Just hook one up to your Arduino, line it up with a laser pointer, and you’ve got a working laser detection syst...

SKU: DF-SEN0403 | Brand: DFRobot

DFRobot TCS3430 XYZ Tristimulus Color Sensor employs the new generation of TCS3430 spectral sensor IC launched by the well-known AMS company. It features advanced digital ambient light sensing(ALS) and CIE 1931 tristi...

SKU: AF-2748 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit ALS-PT19 is a compact analog light sensor that provides a simple voltage output proportional to ambient light intensity. Its spectral response closely matches that of the human eye, thanks to a high infra...

SKU: AF-3316 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit VL6180X is a close-range Time-of-Flight (ToF) distance sensor from ST that measures from approximately 5 mm to 100 mm (up to 150–200 mm in good conditions). It also includes a built-in ambient light senso...

SKU: DF-SEN0641 | Brand: DFRobot

The RS485 PAR Sensor measures photosynthetically active radiation in the 400–700 nm wavelength range — the light spectrum that plants use for photosynthesis. It converts incident radiation into a signal proportional t...

SKU: EF-EF05021 | Brand: ElecFreaks

The UV sensor is able to measure the total ultraviolet intensity of sunlight. You can use it to sense ozone and pollutants or make fire safety devices.

SKU: AF-1246 | Brand: Adafruit

Add light-reactive sensing to your wearable Flora project with this high precision Lux sensor. The TSL2561 luminosity sensor is an advanced digital light sensor, ideal for use in a wide range of light situations. Comp...

SKU: TB-XC4574 | Brand: Little Bird

The light sensor, also known as the light dependent resistor (LDR). Typically, the resistance of the light sensor will decrease when the ambient light intensity increases.   Linksprite Page   Specificat...

SKU: SF-COM-08348 | Brand: SparkFun

The TEMT6000x01 is a compact ambient light sensor that operates as an NPN phototransistor. The more light that hits the sensor, the stronger the base bias, producing an analog output proportional to the ambient light ...
