The microcontroller-based concept was chosen because I wanted to scale the sensor system later to suit other applications. Here is the diagram of my Arduino infrared close proximity sensor. As you can ...

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. The main ...

We’ve featured loads of IR Arduino projects and they are all exciting ... Maybe he will add a temperature sensor someday so it doesn’t have to run on strictly time. A more complicated problem ...

If you have a few hours spare and fancy creating a new Arduino ... IR light to scatter in many directions. Some of this light is directed down into the screen, towards an array of 64 IR sensors.
