Hi guys, continuing on our recent path of building really cool stuffs based on the Nokia 5110 LCD display, today we will be building a DIY Lux (or light) meter using the highly sensitive BH1750 light sensor. In photometry, illuminance is the total luminous flux incident on a surface,...

In this tutorial codebender_cc uses the Adafruit TSL2561 sensor to measure LUX with Arduino. The TSL2561 luminosity sensor is an advanced digital light sensor, ideal for use in a wide range of light situations. Compared to low cost CdS cells, this sensor is more precise, allowing for...

Here is a nice build of a LUX meter using BH1750 sensor and a Nokia 5110 LCD. The meter is controlled by an Arduino Pro Mini and is powered by a Li-Ion battery. The LCD backlight is controlled according to environment light and there is graphing capability of the measured light...

LUX Meter project has been design to measure the illumination. Illumination is luminous flux falling on surface area of photo diode. This illumination converted to corresponding voltage using Op-Amp circuit. Specifications Supply 9 VDC PP3 Battery @ 20 mA Onboard Photo...
