- Esplora Led calibration
-
- This sketch shows you how to read and calibrate the light sensor.
- Because light levels vary from one location to another, you need to calibrate the
- sensor for each location. To do this, you read the sensor for a few seconds,
- and save the highest and lowest readings as maximum and minimum.
- Then, when you're using the sensor's reading (for example, to set the brightness
- of the LED), you map the sensor's reading to a range between the minimum
- and the maximum.
-
- Created on 22 Dec 2012
- by Tom Igoe
-
- This example is in the public domain.
