This project demonstrates how to measure distance using a Sharp IR sensor with an Arduino UNO. The sensor will read the distance to an object and print the value to the Serial Monitor. Connect the VCC ...

An Infrared Distance Sensor as well as Processing is used by Arduino in order to visualize real world sensor data measurements. An Infrared Distance Sensor as well as Processing is used by Arduino in ...

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 ...

[Fernando] sent in a tip about a pet project he’s been working on. It’s an interesting take on a 3D scanner. He used a stepper motor to rotate the object being scanned, and an Arduino for control, but ...

Have you ever wondered how many waves a Maneki Neko performs in a full day of work? Or have you ever been worried that your Maneki Neko has been slacking off? Well...now you can know the answer to ...

The sensor continuously sends out infrared light and measures how much of that light is reflected. When a reflective object is within its set detection range, it returns a low signal. The Arduino ...

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 ...
