Introduction

This type of photoresistor is made of environment-friendly materials(no Cadmium and Lead) compared with the traditional CDS photoresistor.
It changes resistance depending on the amount of light it is exposed to. These little sensors can be used in light-interacting projects.

Projects

Project 1. Sunflower - Arduino Solar Tracker
In modern solar tracking systems, the solar panels are fixed on a structure that moves according to the position of the sun. In this project it designs a solar tracker using two servo motors, a light sensor consisting of four mini photocells and Arduino UNO board.
Hardware Components:
DFRduino UNO R3
I/O Expansion Shield for Arduino
DF05BB Tilt/Pan Kit (5kg)
Mini Photocell x 4
Resistor 100kOhm x 4
DFRobot Solar Panel
