Build a Light Detector Inspired by Space Communications — NASA JPL lessonLesson plan
In this activity, students will build and code a device capable of detecting and measuring light from several light sources. Each light source will emit light at a different wavelength but only one wavelength contains the information students will need to collect. Students will write a program that enables their device to selectively detect only the desired light source. Materials Laptop or tablet capable of running Python or similar programming language Breadboard Several LEDs, preferably incl
