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...

SKU: AF-3779 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit AS7262 is a 6-channel visible light spectral sensor from AMS that measures light intensity across six specific wavelength bands: violet (450 nm), blue (500 nm), green (550 nm), yellow (570 nm), orange (60...

SKU: PR-PIM033 | Brand: Little Bird

The Light module detects ambient light level. It's ideal for use in a weather station, keeping track of light levels in your greenhouse, or reminding you when you've left the lights on in your house. Feat...

SKU: PR-PIM030 | Brand: Little Bird

The Colour module detects RGB colour, as well as ambient light level. It also has two bright white LEDs to illuminate objects whose colour is being detected. It uses the TCS3472 colour sensor. I...

SKU: PR-PIM203 | Brand: Little Bird

Enviro pHAT packs 4 different sensors, letting you measure temperature, pressure, light level, colour, 3-axis motion, compass heading, and analog inputs. That's up to 10 different variables! It's ideal for monitoring ...

SKU: SF-SEN-15050 | Brand: SparkFun

The SparkFun Triad Spectroscopy Sensor combines three AS7265x spectral sensors with onboard UV, visible, and IR LEDs to measure light across 18 individual frequencies — from 410 nm (UV) to 940 nm (IR). It brings light...

SKU: AF-466 | Brand: Adafruit

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 ...

SKU: SF-SEN-12787 | Brand: SparkFun

This is the SparkFun RGB and Gesture Sensor, a small breakout board with a built in APDS-9960 sensor that offers ambient light and color measuring, proximity detection, and touchless gesture sensing. With this RGB and...

SKU: AF-6476 | Brand: Adafruit

This compact board makes it easy to measure ultraviolet light across three separate bands, giving you independent UVA, UVB and UVC readings instead of a single combined value. That makes it a strong fit for human and ...

SKU: SF-SEN-30161 | Brand: SparkFun

Built around the VCNL4040, this tiny Qwiic Micro breakout provides short-range presence detection for projects where space and weight are tight. It is designed for qualitative sensing: detecting whether an object is p...
