Introduction
An obstacle avoidance sensor mainly consists of an infrared transmitter, an infrared receiver and a potentiometer. According to the reflecting character of an object, if there is no obstacle, the emitted infrared ray will weaken with the distance it spreads and finally disappear. If there is an obstacle encountered by the infrared rays, the rays will be reflected back to the infrared receiver. Then the receiver detects the signal and confirms an obstacle in front.
* 3-Pin anti-reverse cable included
* Power light and signal output indicator included
* Output digital signals
* Use a comparator LM393 that works stably
Application
The module is widely applied in obstacle avoidance robots and cars, and counting in an assembly line.
