Required Parts

STEP1: 

Plug the Crowtail-Base Shield 

onto the Arduino or Crowduino Board.

Hardware Connection

STEP2: 

Connect Crowtail-Luminance Sensor to 

Crowtail-Base shield’s A0 port. The complete 
connection is as follows:

Open the 

P06_Calculating_Light_Intensity 

with Arduino IDE and upload it.

Lesson 6 – Calculating light intensity

Introduction

Crowtail - Luminance Sensor using APDS-9002 as lumens Sensor, 
provide the linear transform lumen intensity for the output voltage 
levels. And APDS-9002 spectrum and human eye is extremely close 
to. It is very suitable for the field of AI applications.
In this lesson, we will use Crowtail-Luminance Sensor to obtain the 
light intensity and print it in serial monitor.

We use the analogRead() function to read the value on an analog pin. analogRead() takes one 
parameter, the analog pin you want to use, A0 in this case, and returns a number between 0 (0 volts) 
and 1023 (5 volts), which is then assigned to the variable sensor_value.

Analog Input: int sensor_value = analogRead(ROTARY_ANGLE_SENSOR);

Unlike void function (), an integer function will return a number after running, and this number is an 
integer number. In short, this integer function() will return an integer number each time it is run. 

Integer function: int getDegree(){}
