  2. Photoresistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoresistor

    A photoresistor can be used in light-sensitive detector circuits and light-activated and dark-activated switching circuits acting as a semiconductor resistance. In the dark, a photoresistor can have a resistance as high as several megaohms (MΩ), while in the light, it can have a resistance as low as a few hundred ohms.

  3. Densitometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Densitometer

    A densitometer is a device that measures the degree of darkness (the optical density) of a photographic or semitransparent material or of a reflecting surface. [1] The densitometer is basically a light source aimed at a photoelectric cell . [ 2 ]

    Lamps that turn on automatically in response to darkness; Position sensors that activate when an object interrupts a light beam; Flash detection, to synchronize one photographic flash to another; Photoelectric sensors that detect the distance, absence, or presence of an object

  5. Photodetector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photodetector

    A microbolometer is a specific type of bolometer used as a detector in a thermal camera. Cryogenic detectors are sufficiently sensitive to measure the energy of single x-ray, visible and infrared photons. [18] Pyroelectric detectors detect photons through the heat they generate and the subsequent voltage generated in pyroelectric materials.

  7. Photoelectric sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoelectric_sensor

    Conceptual through-beam system to detect unauthorized access to a secure door. If the beam is interrupted, the detector triggers an alarm. A photoelectric sensor is a device used to determine the distance, absence, or presence of an object by using a light transmitter, often infrared, and a photoelectric receiver. They are largely used in ...
