DESCRIPTION
This module is ideally suited to obstacle detection, typically seen in project robots and entry alarms. Working at a low 5V input the module will output variable levels depending on the distance of the detected object.
A panel mounting hole ensures you have some method of mounting the unit to the robot.
IR (Infrared) is in a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is invisible to the naked eye. As such testing this module can be troublesome. A nice little trick to help; take a digital camera or smartphone camera and point the camera at the LED while it is lit. You will find most digital cameras show a gentle purple glow from the LED when it is lit.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require further information regarding the module's operation.
