The PASCO Wireless Light Sensor streams data directly to your computers, Chromebooks, iPads, iPhones, or Android tablets or smartphones.
The PASCO Wireless Light Sensor streams data directly to your computers, Chromebooks, iPads, iPhones, or Android tablets or smartphones.
The Wireless Light Sensor has dual apertures for directional and ambient measurements.
Ideal for studying insolation and the seasons.
The Wireless Light Sensor (along with a Smart Cart and Basic Optics Light Source) is the simplest way to explore light intensity as a function of distance and the inverse square law.
Exploring polarizing filters and the effect of relative angle with the Polarizer Demonstrator and a Light Source.
The Wireless Light Sensor measures light intensity,illuminance, UVA, UVB & UV Index as well as the relative intensity of Red, Green, Blue light and the ability to sum them for the level of White light. PAR and irradiance can also be easily calculated wit

Wireless Light Sensor

The most versatile light sensor we've ever made, it is like having five sensors in one!

Measures illuminance, irradiance, UVA, UVB and UV Index and features RGB color detection.

Connects directly to your devices via Bluetooth® and covers a wide range of applications.

This is the most versatile and most cost effective light sensor we've ever produced with a variety of measurements for the science classroom that is unmatched.

The Wireless Light Sensor features two separate apertures - one for ambient measurements and one for directional light measurements.

The ambient sensor measures illuminance, UVA, UVB and UV Index. The spot aperture measures light level and has color detection with channels for the relative intensity of Red, Green, Blue light and theability to sum them for the level of White light.

In addition PAR and irradiance are available as calculated measurements in PASCO Capstone (version 1.8 or later) and SPARKvue (version 2.6 or later) software. 

Note:  The Wireless Light Sensor is not recommended for diffraction studies using our Optics Systems.  For that we recommend our PASPORT High Sensitivity Light Sensor

Independent datalogging 

Long term data collection directly on the sensor

In logging mode wireless sensors collect data to their onboard memory for hours, days, weeks or even months at a time without needing to be connected to a computer, tablet, Chromebook or smartphone.

When the experiment is concluded, simply connect the sensor to a device running PASCO software and download all the measurements it recorded.
