The Elecrow CROWTAIL Flame Sensor 2.0 utilizes a YG1006 NPN silicon phototransistor with a black epoxy lens specifically tuned to the infrared spectrum emitted by flames. This design provides high-speed response and sensitivity to wavelengths between 760nm and 1100nm, which are characteristic of fire and other intense light sources. The module outputs a digital signal that transitions based on the detected infrared intensity, allowing for straightforward threshold-based detection logic.
Engineered for reliability in dynamic environments, the sensor is commonly deployed in educational robotics, fire-fighting robot competitions, and smart vehicle projects where flame avoidance or source location is required. Its compact form factor and standardized Crowtail connector simplify prototyping and system integration without the need for complex soldering or signal conditioning circuits.
