Using a photoresistor

Now with the knowledge of what a photoresistor is we can build a small circuit with one.

Key objectives

In this project, you will:

•Create a circuit with a photoresistor included

• Document how the circuit works

1. Explore phase

Someone needs a circuit that functions similar to a street lamp

2. Create phase

Using a Breadboard and Arduino, LED, 330Ω Resistor, Some jumper wires, A photoresistor and a 10K resistor build the following circuit

With the circuit made we also need to make code so the circuit can work. Create the following code to work with the circuit

3. Share phase

Document how the circuit reacts in a bright environment vs in a dark environment
