BY KAUSHIK N PRATHAP M parts required LDR SENSOR AURDINO UNO MALE TO FEMALE JUMPER WIRES BUIB BULB HOLDER WIRES ABOUT LDR SENSOR • Light-dependent resistor • According to 4 sources • LDR Sensor is a light-dependent resistor. So as the intensity of light changes, the resistance of the sensor also changes. This change is seen in the zig-zag material which is the semi- conductor. WHAT IS THE USE • Detect light • An LDR sensor (Light Dependent Resistor) is a device that is used to detect light. It has a (variable) resistance that changes with the light intensity that falls upon it. This allows them to be used in light sensing circuits. • The sensor that can be used to detect light is an LDR. It's inexpensive, and you can buy it from any local electronics store or online. The LDR gives out an analog voltage when connected to VCC (5V), which varies in magnitude in direct proportion to the input light intensit. WHERE IT USE • The LDR is used in the infrared astronomy. • The LDR is used in light failure alarm circuits and used in light meter. • The LDR used in smoke detectors. • It is used for automatic contrast and brightness control in television receivers. • It is used in photosensitive relAY • It is used in optical coding. • It is used in street light control circuits. • It is used in camera light meters. • It is used in the security alarm. • It is used as a proximity switch. • It is used in light activated control circuits.
