Description
IR Module – Infrared Sensor for Obstacle Detection and Line Following Projects
Key Features:
- Infrared Sensing Technology: The module uses an IR transmitter (LED) and an IR receiver (photodiode) to detect objects and surfaces by measuring the reflection of infrared light. It’s an effective solution for non-contact sensing in various applications.
- Adjustable Sensitivity: Equipped with a potentiometer, the sensitivity of the IR module can be easily adjusted. This allows you to fine-tune the detection range, making it suitable for detecting objects at different distances, typically from 2cm to 30cm.
- Digital Output Signal: The module provides a digital output (HIGH/LOW) based on the presence or absence of an object within its detection range. This output can be directly interfaced with microcontrollers like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or other development boards for real-time obstacle detection.
- Compact and Lightweight: The small form factor of the IR module makes it easy to integrate into robotics and electronic projects without taking up much space. It’s ideal for applications where compact sensors are required.
- Versatile Applications: Perfect for obstacle-avoiding robots, line-following robots, object counters, proximity sensors, and more. The IR module is a key component in many DIY electronics projects and educational kits.
- Power Efficiency: The IR module is designed to operate with low power consumption, making it suitable for battery-powered projects and long-term usage in embedded systems.
