Product description: DLIGHT ambient light sensor - BH1750FVI-TR - Unit expansion module for M5Stack development modules
Digital ambient light sensor in the form of a Unit type expansion module. The sensor was manufactured by the M5Stack company and equipped with the BH1750FVI-TR system that enables the measurement of light intensity in the range from 1 lux to 65,535 lux . It can be used to work in various lighting conditions, also in a room with incandescent lighting, where the main source of light is a fluorescent bulb, halogen, white LED diode or standard sunlight . The module is characterized by a compact size and low energy consumption.
DLIGHT - Light sensor what is it?
The light sensor is responsible for measuring the level of light intensity in a given environment. The value of such intensity is expressed in the Lux unit. Most often, we can meet a light sensor in the phone, which automatically adjusts the screen brightness to the needs of the current environment.
You don't know how to connect the light sensor? With the Unit module you can do it quickly and easily - just plug the included cable into the only socket in the module.
