🔍 Product Overview
Enjoy watching how it works -This IR Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Module is a compact, reflective-type proximity sensor perfect for detecting nearby objects within a defined range. It works by emitting infrared light and measuring the reflection from obstacles—ideal for robotics, automation and DIY projects that require simple, effective obstacle detection.
🚀 Why It’s Ideal for Your Projects
-
Easy object detection – The module triggers when an object comes into range, allowing you to detect obstacles, edges, or approaching items without complex setups.
-
Adjustable sensitivity – With a built-in potentiometer, you can fine-tune the detection distance to suit your specific project, whether for close-range or farther sensing.
-
Microcontroller-friendly interface – Operates from 3.3 to 5 V and provides a clean digital signal output (active low) that plugs directly into Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi GPIOs or other controllers.
📝 Key Features
-
Operating voltage: ≈ 3.3 V to 5 V DC
-
Output: Digital signal (low when obstacle detected)
-
Typical detection distance: ~2 cm to ~30 cm (adjustable)
-
