Project 05 - OPT3001 with Arduino (Lux meter)

This project illustrates how we can use Arduino as Lux meter to measure intensity of light. I decided to use OPT3001 sensor from Texas Instruments for this tutorial, because of following features, 1. Precision Optical Filtering 2. Automatic Full-Scale Setting Feature 3. Measurements: 0.01 lux to 83 k lux 4. Low Operating Current: 1.8 μA Project details along with code : http://www.microcontrollershub.com/project-05-opt3001-with-arduino-lux-meter OPT3001 uses I2C protocol to communicate with Arduino.
