Product description
Infrared proximity sensor module (IR proximity sensor). Equipped with an IR emitter and a photodiode (receiver), the module detects obstacles through reflected infrared light. It is used, for example, for obstacle detection in autonomous robots. The module has a digital output (0 or 1) that sends a signal to a microcontroller when an obstacle is detected within the set distance. The digital output can be easily integrated with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, micro:bit, or ESP32.
Specifications:
- Operating voltage: 3 - 5 VDC
- Detection distance: approximately 2 - 20 cm depending on adjustment
- Detection angle: approximately 35°
- Adjustable IR emitter power and receiver sensitivity via two potentiometers
- Jumper for enabling or disabling obstacle detection
- Dimensions: 41 x 17 x 11 mm
