The Grove - Sunlight Sensor is a multi-channel digital light sensor, which has the ability to detect UV-light, visible light and infrared light.

Overview

This device is based on SI1145, a new sensor from SiLabs. The Si1145 is a low-power, reflectance-based, infrared proximity, UV index and ambient light sensor with I2C digital interface and programmable-event interrupt output.
This device offers excellent performance under a wide dynamic range and a variety of light sources including direct sunlight.
The Grove - Sunlight Sensor include an on-bard Grove connector, which help you to connect it your Arduino easily.

Features:

  • Digital light sensor
  • Wide spectrum detection range to improve accuracy.
  • Programmable configuration which make it versatile for various applications.
  • Detect sunlight directly
  • Grove compatible
  • I2C Interface (7-bit)

Remote working with Arduino: Alexa and the Arduino IoT Cloud
Remote working with Arduino: Alexa and the Arduino IoT Cloud
May 13, 2020

We'll certainly remember this year, with many of us learning how to adapt and live a safe life-style under the pandemic. As many countries begin to initiate a relaxation of restrictions and we are starting to be able to leave our houses, arrange shifts to get into work (still observing safety measures), we might find ourselves with different needs. Perhaps we got used to having the TV on more often than usual, letting the voices of shows we don’t really watch keep us company in the background while home alone… working. Maybe we just like to have a corner light up with colors which soothe our moods, or give a fancy background tint to a remote disco party as we dress with big shades and wigs. Many of these things can easily be automated using Alexa and Arduino IoT Cloud, so when we (finally) leave the house and are not sure if the TV is still on, or if our living room corner is still purple! we can simply ask “Alexa, turn the TV off” or “Alexa, turn the living room off” and a series of smart devices and software will take care of it for us.Let’s give it a shot... Getting the Alexa skill: Learn how to use Arduino IoT Cloud and Amazon Alexa to interact with your sensors.
