Apr 9, 2018 · We're going to use CircuitPython, Mu, and the light sensor on Circuit Playground Express to plot light levels. We have a simple nine-line piece of code below. We'll run this code on our Circuit Playground Express and use Mu to plot the sensor data that CircuitPython prints out.

Jul 21, 2020 · You can use this sensor with any CircuitPython microcontroller board or with a computer that has GPIO and Python thanks to Adafruit_Blinka, our CircuitPython-for-Python compatibility library.

Jun 5, 2018 · The Circuit Playground Express and Bluefruit have a light sensor on the right side, near the eye printed on the board. Though the images are of the Circuit Playground Express, the sensor is in essentially the same location on the Bluefruit. It senses the amount of ambient light and returns the light level based on that data.

Apr 2, 2019 · It's easy to use the VEML7700 sensor with CircuitPython and the Adafruit CircuitPython VEML7700 module. This module allows you to easily write Python code that reads the ambient light levels, including Lux, from the sensor.

Oct 26, 2022 · This module allows you to easily write Python code that reads the values from the LTR-329 and LTR-303 light sensors. You can use this sensor with any CircuitPython microcontroller board or with a computer that has GPIO and Python thanks to Adafruit_Blinka, our CircuitPython-for-Python compatibility library.

Aug 13, 2020 · It's easy to use the AS7341 with Python or CircuitPython, and the Adafruit CircuitPython AS7341 module. This module allows you to easily write Python code that reads multi-spectral color intensity from the AS7341 sensor.

Jul 29, 2012 · It's easy to use the TSL2561 sensor with Python and CircuitPython, and the Adafruit CircuitPython TSL2561 module. This module allows you to easily write Python code that reads the luminosity and more from the sensor.

Feb 26, 2019 · A light sensor (also known as a CdS cell, light-dependent resistor, or photoresistor) detects light. They change their resistive value (in ohms, Ω) depending on how much light shines into the photocell.

Jul 29, 2012 · With CircuitPython you can easily read IR sensor pulses from Python code. Built-in to CircuitPython is a special pulseio module which actually does most of the work of reading fast IR receiver pulses for you.

Mar 28, 2018 · You can use this sensor with any CircuitPython microcontroller board or with a computer that has GPIO and Python thanks to Adafruit_Blinka, our CircuitPython-for-Python compatibility library.
