The part list consists of one Arduino, two resistors, and one IR emitter. That’s right, an emitter. When an LED (IR or otherwise) is reverse biased it can act as a light sensor.

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. ... Here is the diagram of my Arduino infrared close proximity sensor ...

Now, though, it shouldn’t be hard to control the RGB LED strips through an Arduino, a computer, or even an Android/iOS device with a small IR LED plugged into the headphone jack.

The Pressure Sensor Module incorporates a material called Velostat with the Arduino. This material adds more resistance when more pressure is applied to the material. This module also uses the RGB LED ...

With OmniVision’s OH02A1S image sensor, both IR and RGB images can now be captured using a single chip, allowing the surgeon to switch between high quality RGB and IR in real time, or to display ...

Infineon's RGB LED Lighting Shield is one two of Arduino-based evaluation boards created to showcase the capabilities of its ARM-based XMC1000 MCUs in lighting and motor control applications. Unlike ...

RGB UV IR light sensor is under 1x2mm STMicroelectronics has introduced a multi-spectral ambient light (plus UVA and near-IR) sensor, with flicker detection, in a package smaller than 1mm x 2mm.

Arduino enthusiasts may be interested in a new single pixel scanning camera which is powered by an Arduino Uno combined with a TCS34725 sensor available from online stores such as Adafruit.

For prototyping, Infineon has a RGB LED lighting control shield for Arduino, based around its ARM Cortex-M0 XMC1202 microcontroller. On board is something called a ‘brightness colour control unit’ ...

OmniVision Technologies, Inc., a leading developer of advanced digital imaging solutions, today announced the OH02A1S—the world’s first RGB-IR medical ...
