Description

This infrared obstacle avoidance sensor operates on the principle of active photoelectric detection. An integrated infrared LED emits a modulated light beam, and a dedicated phototransistor receiver detects the intensity of the reflected signal. An onboard comparator circuit processes this signal, providing a clean digital high/low output when an object is detected within its effective range.

The module is engineered for reliable performance in a wide temperature range, making it suitable for both indoor and basic outdoor environments. Its simple digital interface allows for immediate integration into projects without complex signal conditioning, serving as a fundamental building block for proximity sensing.

Key Features

Digital output provides a clean, TTL-compatible signal for direct microcontroller input.
Wide 3.3V to 5V operating voltage ensures compatibility with most common development platforms.
Extended temperature tolerance from -40°C to +70°C supports use in varied environments.
Integrated signal processing circuit includes amplification, filtering, and comparison for stable operation.
Easy-Plug connector system enables tool-free connection to compatible shield boards, reducing prototyping time.
Compact and durable PCB construction optimized for integration into robotic and automated systems.

Applications

Mobile robot and AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) front or side collision avoidance.
Proximity detection for automated doors and elevator safety curtains.
Object presence sensing in conveyor belt systems and industrial automation.
Basic obstacle detection for DIY robotics, drones, and educational STEM projects.
Interactive installations and exhibits requiring non-contact object detection.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the output signal type of this infrared sensor?

The sensor provides a digital output signal. The output pin switches to a logic low state when an obstacle is detected within its effective range, and returns to a logic high state when the path is clear. This digital signal can be read directly by a microcontroller's digital input pin without requiring an analog-to-digital converter (ADC).

What is the operating voltage range, and is it 5V tolerant?

The module operates from 3.3V to 5V DC. It is fully compatible with both 3.3V logic systems (like ESP32, Raspberry Pi) and traditional 5V Arduino boards. The digital output signal will correspond to the supplied VCC level, ensuring proper logic level matching with the host controller.

How do I connect this sensor to an Arduino or ESP32 board?

Connection is simplified by the Easy-Plug connector system. For compatible ACEBOTT or third-party shields, you simply plug the module into the designated port. For standard connection, you typically wire VCC to your board's 3.3V or 5V pin, GND to ground, and the digital output signal (OUT) to any digital input pin on your microcontroller.

What is the typical detection range and how can it be adjusted?

The detection range is fixed by the factory calibration of the IR LED output and receiver sensitivity. For most modules of this type, the effective range is typically between 2cm to 30cm. The range cannot be adjusted via software, but the sensing threshold can be fine-tuned in some models via a potentiometer on the PCB; please check your specific module.
