Experiments with the light sensor

The GY30-BH1750 light intensity sensor can be used to measure brightness. As the sensors are not calibrated, only relative intensities can be measured, not absolute intensities.

The sensor is particularly suitable for measuring the relative intensity distribution in diffraction images.

Installing the sensor in a housing makes mounting and positioning the sensor much easier.

The "Interference images" instructions describe the installation of the sensor in the housing and the connection of a stepper motor. The motor allows the position to be set more accurately than when positioning by hand.
