Light detector

Inspiration

providing plants with enough sunlight

What it does

checks how much light is present and tells the user using a servo motor

How we built it

Arduino Uno Starter kit; a phototransistor detects the amount of light and the servo motor moves accordingly

Challenges we ran into

the servo motor was complicated to work with

Accomplishments that we're proud of

learning Arduino

What we learned

how to make an electrical circuit and use Arduino

What's next for Light detector

we can progress it by adding a timer and an LCD screen that tells you how long a spot has been in sunlight. It will help people figure out if a spot is good for planting plants
