The NXT light sensor is primarily used to gather information about the light levels in the environment around the robot. A few ideas for projects that incorporate the light sensor are:

1) Follow a black line
2) Trigger an event when something passes in front of the sensor, reducing the effective light level
3) Determine when a structure is in a dark or light environment and respond by turning on or off a lamp.

For an example program, see the activity "Light in the Tunnel" in the Activities section of LEGOengineering.com.
