I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

Controlling an LED with Arduino Using an IR Sensor An Infrared (IR) sensor is a commonly used device for proximity detection and object sensing. When combined with an Arduino and an LED, it can create ...

Photoelectric sensors detect objects and surface changes using variations in optical properties. Each sensor includes a light emitter and a receiver, with most relying on infrared light. In optical ...

This project is an Arduino-based obstacle-avoiding robot that uses both ultrasonic and infrared (IR) sensors for navigation. The robot moves forward while continuously scanning for obstacles. If an ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new open source infrared sensor which has been created to support both Raspberry Pi and Arduino powered projects. The IR Detector proximity sensor has ...

Chapter 1, page 11 This code is basic but allows the reader to gain insight into key elements for several other projects in this book. It combines two pieces of code that are listed in the examples ...

If you have a few hours spare and fancy creating a new Arduino project in your spare time you might be interested in this fun Arduino infrared touchscreen music controller which has been created by ...
