Phototransistor

Here some random video showing how to use a phototransistor. It works even simpler than the photo-resistor we all know and love not to mention it's really really cheap ($.14 cents). Think of it like a switch activated by light (infrared in this case although other types are available) Super simple and way affordable. Can be made into a switch type device for Arduino easy.
