Vernier™ Go Direct™ Light and Color Sensor

Description

• Visible Light Sensor Wavelengths: 400 to 800 nm Range: 0 to 150,000 lux Maximum sampling rate: 1,000 samples/s UV Sensor Responsive to UVA and UVB wavelengths Maximum sampling rate: 1 Hz RGB Sensor Peak response: 615 nm peak (red); 525 nm peak (green); 465 nm peak (blue) Maximum sampling rate: 0.5 Hz Explore light intensity as a function of distance
• Conduct polarized filter studies
• Observe the flicker of fluorescent lamps
• Perform reflectivity studies, including color analysis
• The fast sampling rate for the visible light sensor (1000 Hz) allows you to observe the flicker of fluorescent lamps
• Use the RGB sensor to determine the relative contribution of red, green, and blue light
• A built-in white LED provides uniform illumination when the sensor is placed directly on a surface, reducing the effect of variable ambient light
• Ideal for experiments using sunlight and UV lamps, the UV sensor responds well to ultraviolet radiation in the UVA and UVB spectrum.
