2022 Debut: Measuring Heart Rate Using Phyphox, ESP32, and Photoresistor

Experimental Scenario 1 Introduction Recently, while reviewing exam papers, I encountered an innovative question based on photoresistors. Inspired by this, I decided to design a clever experiment using Phyphox and ESP32 to see if I could measure my own heart rate. 2 Design Idea Utilizing the combination of Phyphox and ESP32 to measure the resistance … Read more

Exploring the Relationship Between Photoresistor Current and Light Intensity Using Phyphox and ESP32 Bluetooth

Exploring the Relationship Between Photoresistor Current and Light Intensity Using Phyphox and ESP32 Bluetooth

Recently, we conducted an experiment to explore the relationship between the current of a photoresistor and light intensity. The photoresistor and a voltage divider resistor were connected in series, powered by the 5V output of the ESP32. We used pin IO33 to collect the voltage across the voltage divider resistor and calculated the current through … Read more

Step-by-Step Guide to Automating Light Control with Siemens PLC and Photoresistor

Step-by-Step Guide to Automating Light Control with Siemens PLC and Photoresistor

Hey everyone, I’m your old friend Secretary Jiang. Today, I’m bringing you an interesting project—an automatic light control system based on a photoresistor. Just the name sounds high-tech, right? In simple terms, the light turns off when it’s bright and turns on automatically when it’s dark. We’ll use a Siemens PLC to implement this function, … Read more
