IR Module Infrared Obstacle Avoidance IR Sensor Module (Active Low) for Arduino Smart Car Robot 3-wire – Precise, Versatile

IR Module-

This IR Sensor Module has a pair of infrared transmitting and receiving tubes. When the transmitted light waves are reflected back, the reflected IR waves will be received by the receiver tube. The onboard comparator circuitry does the processing and the green indicator LED comes to life.

These IR Modules work on the principle of detecting infrared radiation emitted or reflected by objects. They contain an IR transmitter (LED) and an IR receiver (photodiode). The module typically consists of an IR LED that emits infrared light and a photodiode that detects the reflected or emitted IR light.

The effective detection range of an IR Module depends on factors like the intensity of the IR source and the reflectivity of the objects in its field of view. IR Sensor Modules are widely used in applications such as proximity sensing in smartphones, obstacle detection in robotics, line following in autonomous vehicles, and motion detection in security systems.

The IR module features a 3-wire interface with VCC, GND and an OUTPUT pin on its tail. It works fine with 3.3 to 5V levels. Upon hindrance/ reflectance, the output pin gives out a digital signal (a low-level signal). The on-board preset helps to fine-tune the range of operation, effective distance range is 2cm to 80cm.

The IR Module Features a user-friendly interface and clear documentation, the IR Sensor Module is easy to set up and integrate into your projects. Whether you’re a seasoned developer or just starting out, you’ll appreciate the simplicity and efficiency it brings to your creations.

The IR Module is designed to provide precise object detection in various applications. Whether you’re building a proximity sensor for robotics or a motion detector for security systems, this module ensures accurate and reliable sensing. The IR module usually operates 3.6 ~ 5VDC voltage range, making it compatible with a wide range of microcontrollers and digital systems. IR Sensor Modules are typically small and easy to integrate into various electronic projects.
