8.1.1 Data Acquisition and Plotting Using a Photo-resistor
|
The photo-resistor is connected to the Arduino using a 10K ohm resistor and a breadboard in the following manner:

This example reads light values from a photo-resistor, stores each value and its corresponding time value in arrays, prints each (time value, light value) pair, and then plots them at the end. Experiment with different time interval values. |
