ABSTRACT:
A light sensor for use to detect only light above a given frequency uses as its light sensitive element a light emitting diode. The L.E.D. is one which, if it were arranged to emit light, would emit light having a maximum frequency equal to the said given frequency.
In combination with such a sensor another L.E.D. can be used having a maximum emission frequency below the said given frequency to illuminate an area without affecting the light sensor.
