Visible Light Spectrum Sensor

Detect trees of green and red roses too with the new adafruit as7262 6 channel visible light color sensor breakout.

Visible light spectrum sensor.

The visible spectrum enables analysis of the surface layers of a component or an item. Temt6000 visible spectrum ambient light sensor this is the temt6000 an ambient light sensor which is sensitive to the visible spectrum. This is the light range that our eyes can naturally see. Node chroma ams is an austrian based sensor company which has a series of spectral sensors that use xyz tri stimulus technology that can measure light waves in the vis and ir both nir and mir ranges.

Such measurements enable lighting engineers to specify the optimum light level for human comfort eliminate excess lighting and ultimately save energy. A compact single shot complementary metal oxide semiconductor cmos spectral sensor for the visible range wavelength 400 700 nm is presented. Capable of sensing a light brightness around you. Visible light sensors detect all light that falls in the visible light region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Traditionally image capture in the swir spectrum couldn t be done using the same sensor technology as for visible light. Visible light applications 400 to 700 nm typically employ cmos image sensors a substrate that allowed the pixel pitch of visible light sensors to shrink quickly giving ever greater resolutions. Our external sensors can record rainfall leaf wetness hours temperature and humidity fluctuations and other weather events with our watchdog data loggers. The sensor consists of two dimensional silicon nitride based photonic crystal pc slabs atop cmos photodetectors.

This sensor from ams has 6 integrated visible light sensing channels for red orange yellow green blue and violet. Spectrum offers a full line of affordable measurement technology for soil compaction soil moisture nutrient levels light weather and other factors directly affecting plant development. Infrared with wavelengths from 700 nm 15 000 nm and x ray with wavelengths of 01 nm 10 nm penetrate deeper into an object providing information about its internal structure. In addition our visible light sensors detect the entire visible light spectrum accurately measuring photopic and scotopic energy.

These channels can be read via the i2c bus as either raw 16 bit values or calibrated floating point values.
