IR Sensor
An IR (Infrared) Sensor is an electronic sensor used to detect the presence, absence, or movement of an object using infrared light. It typically consists of an IR transmitter and receiver. The transmitter emits infrared light, and the receiver detects the reflected light from nearby objects.
Key Features:
Detects objects without physical contact
Simple to use with Arduino, ESP32, and other microcontrollers
Adjustable detection range on many modules
Fast response and reliable operation
Suitable for obstacle detection and automation projects
Using this componentPlan its role before adding it to a circuit.
Consider where this component fits in your project: what it connects to, what signal or movement it provides, and what supporting hardware it needs. Use the listing description as a starting point, then confirm exact electrical and mechanical specifications against the manufacturer information before powering a circuit.
Build safely and check compatibility
Review voltage, current, polarity, pin layout, connector type and physical dimensions for the complete setup. Disconnect power while changing wiring, and test new connections carefully. Browse related robotics and electronics parts or ask us about the intended application through the contact page.
