Adafruit Right Angle VEML7700 Lux Sensor - Qwiic
Vishay has a lot of light sensors out there, and this is a nice simple lux sensor that's easy to add to any microcontoller. Most light sensors just give you a number for brighter/darker ambient lighting. The VEML7700 makes your life easier by calculating the lux, which is an SI unit for light. You'll get more consistent readings between multiple sensors because you aren't dealing with some unit-less values.
The sensor has 16-bit dynamic range for ambient light detection from 0 lux to about 120 klux with resolution down to 0.0036 lx/ct, with software-adjustable gain and integration times. As with all Adafruit breakouts, Adafruit have done the work to make this handy light sensor super easy to use. Adafruit have put it on a breakout board with the required support circuitry and connectors to make it easy to work with.
