These sensors contain a broadband photodiode and an infrared-responding photodiode allowing the ambient light level to be determined, as experienced by the human eye. This illuminance (in lux) is made available through the .Xr sysctl 8 interface and can, for example, be used to adjust the backlight of LCD screens to lighting conditions. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr iic 4 , .Xr intro 4 , .Xr sensorsd 8 , .Xr sysctl 8 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm driver first appeared in .Ox 3.9 . .Sh AUTHORS .An -nosplit The .Nm driver was written by .An Mark Kettenis Aq Mt kettenis@openbsd.org .
