As electronics seamlessly weave their way into our lives, sensors play an increasingly important role. Light sensors are among the simplest and cheapest sensors, allowing their inclusion into numerous ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. The OPT3001 sensor accurately measures the intensity of light visible to the human eye regardless of light source. Its precision spectral response tightly ...

Ambient light sensors (ALSs) are photodetectors that approximate the human eye’s response to light intensity under a variety of lighting conditions and through different attenuation materials. They’re ...

The ambient light sensor on your Dell business laptop adjusts the brightness of your screen according to light intensity picked up from the room. In a brightly lit office, the ALS increases the ...

Jay Holben During one of my recent lectures, there was a great deal of confusion about how to adjust light intensity and when does light quality and/or color change when altering the intensity.

Motion sensing technology has come a long way since its inception several years ago. Today we can find motion sensors in almost any home product, which not only adds convenience but also acts as an ...
