Tired of Students not knowing what to do with light sensor values? Tired of them not knowing which is bright value and which is dark? Introducing the Light Value Visualizer!~With this nifty program, the students can see the intensity of the light using the value bar and the current light sensor value, to record the light values! No more annoying beeps-and-boops of the Try-me! programs. And with the push of the buttons, record the light sensor values! (Yeah.. no more bending over) Super useful in tight spaces where you cant see the screen!
Press the Left Button to record the Dark value Press the Right Button to record the Bright value Press the Orange Button to Reset the Recorded values
