IR Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Module
This IR Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Module is a versatile component commonly used in robotics and automation projects. It is ideal for applications such as robot obstacle avoidance, line counting, and line tracking, making it a crucial component in obstacle-avoidance systems.
Key Features:
Detection Range: Capable of detecting obstacles within a range of 2 to 30 cm.
Detection Angle: Offers a detection angle of approximately 35°.
Adjustable Sensitivity: The detection distance can be fine-tuned using the onboard potentiometer.
Output Interface: The module's output port (OUT) can be directly connected to a microcontroller's IO port or used to drive a 5V relay.
Infrared Technology:
Equipped with an infrared transmitter and receiver pair.
The transmitter emits infrared light at a specific frequency.
When an obstacle is detected within the sensor's range, the reflected infrared light is received by the sensor, triggering the comparator circuit.
Indicator Lights:
Green indicator lights up when an obstacle is detected.
A digital signal (low level) is output through the signal interface.
Power Supply: The module operates on a 3-5V DC power supply and includes a red power indicator LED.
Applications:
Robot Navigation: Ideal for use in robot obstacle avoidance systems.
Obstacle Avoidance Cars: Can be integrated into obstacle avoidance cars for better navigation.
Line Tracking: Suitable for line tracking and counting applications, especially in black and white line tracking scenarios.
