Description
Product Overview:
This compact and versatile IR (Infrared) Sensor Module is an essential component for robotics and automation projects. Designed and manufactured in India, this module uses an IR transmitter and receiver pair to detect obstacles or differentiate between black and white surfaces. It features an onboard LM358 comparator and a potentiometer for easy sensitivity adjustment, making it perfect for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller-based projects.
Key Features:
High Precision Detection: Uses an IR transmitter (clear LED) to emit light and an IR receiver (black LED) to detect the reflection.
Adjustable Sensitivity: Features an onboard blue potentiometer (trim pot) allowing you to fine-tune the detection range based on your environment.
Smart Indicators: Equipped with an onboard LED status indicator that lights up when an obstacle is detected.
Wide Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, PIC, AVR, and 8051 microcontrollers.
Robust Design: Features the reliable LM358 Op-Amp comparator chip for stable performance.
Made in India: High-quality local manufacturing with clear labeling.
Technical Specifications:
- Operating Voltage: 3.3V to 5V DC
- Detection Range: 2cm to 30cm (Adjustable via potentiometer)
- Detection Angle: Approximately 35°
- Comparator Chip: LM358
- Output Type: Digital Output (Logic Low usually when obstacle detected, Logic High when clear)
- Connection Pins: 3 (VCC, GND, OUT)
Pin Configuration:
- VCC: Connect to 3.3V or 5V power supply
- GND: Connect to ground.
- OUT: Digital output pin (Connects to digital I/O on Arduino).
Common Applications:
- Obstacle Avoidance Robots
- Line Following Robots (Black/White line detection)
- Smart Parking Systems
