Light Intensity Meter Project

The light sensor for a lux meter can be one of several different types of sensors including photodiodes and phototransistors but the easiest to use and often the most readily available type of sensor is a photoresistor or light dependent resistor ldr.

Light intensity meter project.

Lux is defined as 1 lumen per square meter. This unit can be used from measuring the human visible light for photographers distance grow lights should be from plants the amount of sun on plants instances where you want to see how much light reaches an area measure light from led s placing of lights to get a uniform covered area and much more. This projects will show you how to create a lux meter. As you can see in the attached photos the light meter works fine.

It also provides an opportunity to apply the knowledge of electronics module to design a prototype of a product. This project aims to design and develop an inexpensive and accurate light intensity meter basically using only electronics components. As you can see in the attached photos the light meter works fine. Within a few minutes one can build such an impressive project.

This project is a great demonstration of what open source hardware and software is capable of. Within a few minutes one can build such an impressive project. We can accurately measure the light intensity with easy to build project. Project definition the transducer used in this experiment is a photocell that converts optical energy light into electrical energy.
