Hi,

I suspect this is due to the fact that the first
sample from the sensor is actually being obtained
while the sensor's reservoir capacitor is still charging.
Well, I considered that, but I wondered why the measurement
is so high then?

Here a little fact: the first reading on the light sensor
_just_ after you have activated it is too high. It seems
like one has to wait a little after activating the sensor. • ___CODE CUT AWAY___
When I ran the program I got the following results: 79-80
_without_ the sleep, and 33-35 (black tape) with the sleep.

Why don't you try a simple test, actually two tests; 1. Initialise as passive sensor Wait 1 (...) (23 years ago, 27-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
