Design of Light Intensity Detection System Based On STM32: Yunhua Zhou
Design of Light Intensity Detection System Based On STM32: Yunhua Zhou
Abstract. With the needs of the society development, the light intensity detection technology has
gradually into the lighting control, health care, biological research and other fields. Based on many
fields and equipments for the light requirement, this paper proposed and designed a light intensity
detection system. The hardware circuit used the STM32F103VB as the main controller; collocate
with BH1750 digital light intensity sensor and LCD module, the power supply module. The design
of software used the modular design, including data acquisition, data display, and intelligent control
module. After the practical application, the detection system works well.
Introduction
Light intensity detection can perceive some signal which human beings cannot feel, so it can
replace the human do the automatic control and detection. Light intensity detection system mainly
through the light sensor to sense the intensity of the light, and thus some of the things that were
detected and the subsequent analysis and processing. The light intensity detection systems is widely
used in the fields of industry and agriculture, intelligent building, environmental monitoring and so
on; it not only becomes the strong technical support for living digitization and information, but
also it is an important means to obtain and update the environmental monitoring data. Therefore, in
the modern society, it is particularly important that the design of a light intensity detection system
with intelligent, excellent performance, reasonable price and space expand [1].
Based on the development of science technology, circuit and smart chip fields, and according to
the characteristics of embedded devices with high performance, low power consumption and low
cost, this paper designed and developed a light intensity detecting system based on STM32
processor. The system uses a light sensor BH1750 to collect light intensity data, and by the STM32
processor for data processing and control, so it can be applied to lighting control for intelligent
building, street and greenhouse [2-3].

light intensity data. It can detect a wide range of light intensity variation using its high resolution
[4]. The main features are as follows:

The work process of measuring light intensity for this system is shown in Fig.5:
Conclusion
This paper designs and implements the light intensity measurement system based on the STM32
microprocessor. The system can detect light intensity of an environment according to the hardware
platform and the software design. The system has the advantages of small volume, low power
consumption and low cost, so it can be widely used in intelligent lighting system, security and other
fields, and has broad application prospects.
