It use to be that, in literature, a incidence of realization was known as a 'moment of realization' or as you have pointed out 'moment of illumination' and these got shortened down to just 'a moment' or 'moments'. It (or they) signify the point in the story where certain things are realized, either by the characters or the reader or perhaps just the narrator.

Then a certain famous writer (James Joyce) thought that such a generic term wasn't worthy of such an important facet of writing and revived and expanded the meaning of an obscure word to take the place of this term.

What is the purpose of a ldr?

"LDR" is a "light-dependant resistor". Its resistance at any moment depends on the intensity of the illumination in which it is bathed at that moment. In combination with a few additional components, it can be used to detect the intensity of the illumination falling on it, and report remotely or control other devices accordingly, as the designer has arranged the circuit. If its response to changes in illumination is sufficiently rapid, it can even be used to detect and reproduce audio that is impressed on a light beam in the form of amplitude modulation, and in that way act as a vital component in a system of light-wave communication.
