 ABSTRACT

The circuit presented here is a project of a DARK SENSOR

using LDR (Light Dependent resistor) on BREADBOARD.

LDRs are particularly convenient electronics component

to use .They provide large change in resistance for changes in
light level. In view of their low cost, ease of
manufacture, and ease of use LDRs have been used in a variety of
different application .At one time LDRs were used in photographic
light meters, and even now they are still used in a variety of
application where it is necessary to detect light levels

We can use dark or light sensor in street light and we the light sensor can give the
robot vision and make it easier for it to operate autonomously.
