Project description

1. Introduction This content provides a guide on how to set up the W5100S-EVB-Pico board in the Arduino IDE. It explains the process of connecting a photoregistor to the board and reading the light intensity values. Additionally, it demonstrates how to publish MQTT messages to the Beebotte Cloud, enabling real-time monitoring of the light intensity values. 1.1. What is Photoregistor? A photoregistor, also known as a light-dependent resistor (LDR) or a photoresistor, is a passive component that changes its resistance based on the amount of light falling on it. It is made of a semiconductor…
