1. Introduction
The Grove - Light Sensor module incorporates a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR). Typically, the
resistance of the LDR or Photoresistor will decrease when the ambient light intensity increases.
This means that the output signal from this module will be HIGH in bright light, and LOW in the
dark.
