SKU: LB-LR0282 | Brand: Little Bird

This Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) can be used to easily measure ambient light with your Arduino or other board with analog input. You will need to set this up as a voltage divider with a resistor of around 10KΩ. ...

SKU: LB-LS2299 | Brand: Little Bird

A UV detection sensor module that measures ultraviolet light intensity in the 200–370 nm wavelength range. The analogue output (0–1 V DC) is proportional to the UV Index, making it suitable for measuring UV exposure i...

SKU: AF-2831 | Brand: Adafruit

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...

SKU: AF-161 | Brand: Adafruit

CdS cells are little light sensors. As the squiggly face is exposed to more light, the resistance goes down. When its light, the resistance is about 5-10KΩ, when dark it goes up to 200KΩ. To use, connect one side o...

SKU: DF-SEN0162 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity Analog UV Sensor V2 uses a GUVA-S12SD photodiode to detect ultraviolet radiation in the 200–370 nm (UV-A) wavelength range. It outputs a linear analogue voltage signal proportional to UV intensity, making ...

SKU: AF-1918 | Brand: Adafruit

An analog UV light sensor breakout based on the GUVA-S12SD photodiode, detecting the 240–370nm range covering UVB and most of the UVA spectrum. An on-board op-amp amplifies the tiny photodiode current to a readable vo...

SKU: SF-DEV-14629 | Brand: SparkFun

The LilyPad Light Sensor is a sewable breakout board with an ALS-PT19 light sensor built in and ready to use right away. Each sensor outputs voltage between 0V and 3.3V depending on the level of ambient light shi...

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 ...

SKU: DF-DFR0022 | Brand: DFRobot

The Gravity Analogue Grayscale Sensor measures reflected light intensity, outputting an analogue value that ranges from black (low) to white (high). It uses a photocell paired with an integrated white LED to illuminat...

SKU: SF-SEN-12566 | Brand: SparkFun

The ALS-PT19 is a compact SMD ambient light sensor, significantly smaller than standard through-hole alternatives like the TEMT6000. Functioning as an NPN phototransistor, it provides an analogue voltage output propor...

SKU: PI-CBI013 | Brand: Pimoroni

You’ve learned how to blink, fade and flash lights – now learn how to sense light levels! The Chibitronics Light Sensor sticker can turn the light level shining upon it into an analog voltage. Best of all, it comes...
