[Indiana Jones] How exactly does the light-sensitive booby trap work?

Also, would the trap be triggered if it was nighttime?

It wasnt triggered by light, that was a bit of misdirection on indy's part.  He didn't trust Sapito so he put his hand into the light and activated the trap with his foot.  That's why Satipo was skewered when he ran out of the temple.  He avoided the light but still triggered the trap.
