The Octopus Light Sensor Brick reads the ambient light level of its surrounding environment and outputs an analog signal. The 3-pin GVS connector makes it easy to plug into micro:bit expansion boards, Arduino, and other microcontrollers without soldering.

Key Features

• Output – Analog signal proportional to light intensity
• Power Input – 3V to 5.5V
• Connector – 3-pin GVS (Signal, VCC, GND)
• Response – Fast response with high sensitivity
• SKU – EF04092

Ideal For

• Ambient light level monitoring
• Automatic lighting control projects
• BBC micro:bit and Arduino sensor projects
• STEM education
