Building a simple digital light meter using Arduino and BH1750FVI sensor

A light meter is a device that measures the intensity of light. It finds applications in schools, hospitals, production areas, passageways and more to measure and maintain proper lighting levels. It is often used by photographers to determine the proper exposure for a photograph. Today we are going to build a simple light meter using […]

Light Meter Using I2C Level Converter LCD and TSL2561

Light Meter Using I2C Level Converter, LCD, and TSL2561using arduino

I recently needed to measure how different materials affect light transmission for a gardening project.  I decided this was the perfect opportunity to try out the new logic level converter to run both a 5v LCD and a 3.3v light sensor on a single i2c bus.  I used the following parts in this project: Arduino
