Introduction:
This Infrared obstacle/object detection sensor is super easy to use. It comes with on board potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity. The output is digital signal so it is easy to interface with any microcontroller such as Arduino Uno,Mega, Leonardo, Zero, 101, even the Raspberry Pi or Raspberry Pi Zero. And of course it is also compatible with all other controller boards .
This Infrared sensor offers simple, user and fast obstacle detection via infrared reflection, it is non contact detection. As it is based on light reflection, the detection do vary with different surface. And any infrared source might also interfere the detection.
Features:
- Digital output
- Detection distance: 2 ~ 30cm
- Operating Voltage 3.3 ~ 5 Volt dc
- Detection angle: 35 °
- Comparator chip: LM393
