Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Proximity Sensors Module FC-51 For Arduino

Description
Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Proximity Sensors Module has builtin IR transmitter and IR receiver that sends out IR energy and looks for reflected IR energy to detect presence of any obstacle in front of the sensor module. The module has on board potentiometer that lets user adjust detection range. The sensor has very good and stable response even in ambient light or in complete darkness.

The sensor module can be interfaced with Arduino, Raspberry Pi or any microcontroller having IO voltage level of 3.3V to 5V.

Applications
Obstacle avoidance in robots
Production counting on assembly lines
Presence detection
Security systems
Features
LM393 Comparator based detetction circuit is very stable and accurate
On board potentiometer sets obstacle detection range
On board Power LED indicator
On board Obsatcle Detection LED indicator
3.0MM mounting hole for easy mounting the sensor.
Male header for easy connection
Good Accuracy: By use of Infra-red LED transmitter the module performs well in Ambient light
