SUMMARY
The discussion centers on interfacing a three-stage comparator circuit with a light-dependent resistor (LDR) to an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) for data visualization on a computer. The recommended solution is to utilize a USB data acquisition device that incorporates an ADC. This approach simplifies the process of capturing and analyzing data from the sensor setup. A link to relevant USB data acquisition resources was provided for further exploration.
