Gravity:Analog Light Sensor LX1972
The Gravity Analog Light Sensor uses the LX1972 ambient light sensing element, which has a spectral response closely matching the human eye with very low infrared sensitivity. It outputs an analog voltage proportional to light intensity, making it easy to read with any microcontroller that has an ADC input.
The Gravity connector interface allows plug-and-play connection to DFRobot expansion shields and other compatible boards.
