I want to use a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) to control a door ( open when it feel light and close it when it's darkness).

Can you help me how can I do this,I have an STM32F100RB.

Thanks a lot

    What kind of signal does the door actuator require? Do you need to drive a motor?

    Yes, if it's light the motor will open the door and when it's night (darkness) the motor will close the door.

    I need a help seriously

    Indeed, probably with both software and hardware. If you don't have any experience in these areas why were you chosen to implement such a design? What design and implementation skills are you bringing to the project?

    You are describing top level functionality, the question I asked related to the nature of the signal the door actuator required, not why it was driven.

    Very good questions!
