Experiment 4, adapted from the SuperPro demo
For this demo, attach a photo-resistor between A0 and 3V and a 4.7kOhm resistor between
GND and A0.
Note: In testing I used a 10kOhm since I don't have 4.7kOhm handy.
It measures brightness and prints to the console. The brighter it is, the higher the
voltage.
In my testing, a phone flashlight puts it to 3.2V and putting my hand over it results in
0.1V, with natural light levels in my workspace being around 1.9-2.0V
