An LDR is a light dependent resistor, which is usually used to detect light levels, either ambient or reflected. The LDR works because incoming light carries energy, which can elevate the energy levels of electrons in a suitable medium to join the 'conduction band' which means that there are more charge carriers in the LDR, and hence the cell has lower resistance.

The function of an LDR or light dependent resistor is to change the brightness of the light based weather conditions or light hitting the object the LDR is on. When it is darker out, the light does not shine as brightly.

THEORY AND CIRCUIT DIAGRAMCircuit Diagram of Electronic Eye Electronic eye has much use in this electronic age. Also Known as magic eye. It can be used as an automatic guest indicator at the door, If fitted on the bottom of the door entrance. Once it is installed at the door there is no need to install a call bell. It can also be used at homes or in banks as a burglar alarm.Fix the LDR to the wooden door or a locker to be protected in such a manner that when anybody tries to open it, a shadow falls on the LDR and the circuit gets activated and produce a pleasant sound through the buzzer.This electronic eye circuit uses NOT gate from CMOS I.CCD 4049. CD 4049 contains 6 independent NOT gate in one package; we have used here (a) one only. NOT gate output goes high(1) when the input pin 3 is at lower then 1/3rd level of the supply voltage. Conversely the output goes low (0) when it is above 1/3rd level. So small change in the voltage of pin-2 is enough to change the level of output (pin-3) from 1 to 0 and 0 to 1. The output has only two states high and low and can not remain in any intermediate stage. It is powered by a 9V battery for portable use. The circuit is economic in power consumption. Pin 1 is connected to the positive supply and pin 8 is grounded.To detect the present of an object we have used LDR and a source of light. LDR is a special type of resistance whose value depends on the brightness of the light which is falling on it. It has resistance of about 1 mega ohm when in total darkness, but a resistance of only about 5k ohms when brightness illuminated. It responds to a large part of light spectrum.We have made a potential divider circuit with LDR and 220 KΩ resistance connected in series. We know that voltage is directly proportional to conductance so more voltage we will get from this divider when LDR is getting light and low voltage in darkness. This divided voltage is given to input of NOT gate.As soon as LDR gets dark the voltage of input not gate drops 1/3rd of the supply voltage and pin 2 gets high and LED or buzzer which is connected to the output gets activated.Advantage of using Logic gate is that data can be easily send to other digital interface device.one can easily fed data to computer using parallel port or for further processing .
An LDR is a Light dependent resistor.
LDR refers to Light Dependent Resistor.
Light Dependent Resistor LDR also means long distance relationship.
The symbol for LDR Holding Corporation in NASDAQ is: LDRH.
LDR Holding Corporation (LDRH) had its IPO in 2013.

As the light intensity increases, the resistance of an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) decreases. This means that the LDR becomes more conductive and allows more current to flow through it. Conversely, when the light intensity decreases, the resistance of the LDR increases, reducing the current flowing through it.
The decrease of light intensity on an LDR will cause the resistance of the LDR to increase, which will result in a decrease in current flow through the circuit. As a result, the ammeter reading will decrease.
When light falls on an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor), more photons are absorbed by the semiconductor material in the LDR, causing more electron-hole pairs to be generated. This increases the conductivity of the material, resulting in a decrease in resistance. Hence, the resistance of an LDR decreases with an increase in light intensity.

An LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) decreases its resistance when exposed to bright light due to the increase in photons striking its surface, allowing more current to flow through it. This change in resistance can be used to detect light levels and trigger corresponding actions in electronic circuits.
