Overview
Different from traditional analog light sensor, as Grove - Light Sensor, this digital module features a selectable light spectrum range due to its dual light sensitive diodes: infrared and full spectrum.
You can choose among three detection modes when taking your readings. There is infrared mode, full spectrum and human visible mode. When running under the human visible mode, this sensor will give you readings within the range of light spectrum that the eye can pick up.
