Abstract
The present invention discloses an optical sensor. The optical sensor comprises a sensor for sensing a reflected light, an image capture device coupling with the sensor for reading the reflected light and calculating an average light intensity of the reflected light, a controller coupling with the image capture device for outputting a control signal based on the average light intensity, a driver coupling with the controller for receiving the control signal to output a drive current based on the control signal, and a light source coupling with the driver for receiving the drive current to generate a light.
