I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

Here is the circuit of a little label sensor ideal for detecting labels on bottles. The circuit offers a peak sensing distance of 2.5 mm (operating range 0.2 mm to 15 mm) backed up by the proven ...

1300-1650nm light source and photodetector integrated into one package SHIMOTSUKE-SHI, Japan--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Kyoto Semiconductor Co., Ltd. (President and CEO: Yoshihisa Shinya, Headquarters: ...

Electronic enthusiasts may be interested in a new open source infrared sensor which has been created to support both Raspberry Pi and Arduino powered projects. The IR Detector proximity sensor has ...

Once you have a track and a kart to race on it, what’s missing? A lap counter that can give your lap times in hardcopy, obviously! That’s what led [the_anykey] to create the Arduino-based Lap Timer to ...

Capable of integrating infrared, visible light, or VSCEL sensing capabilities in a single package, the OPB608 series reflective sensors can detect objects at distances up to 2". Each component in the ...

The CLI700 reflective object sensor consists of an 880-nm aluminum-gallium-arsenide (AlGaAs) infrared emitter and an npn, buffered, open-collector IC. Both are mounted on a custom, four-leaded TO-72 ...

Marktech Optoelectronics has announced the expansion of its surface-mount family of SWIR reflective sensors. The sensors are suitable for position sensing and detection applications, including card, ...

Suitable monitoring and control of process temperatures require exceptional guidance by the producer or a basic understanding of the measurement techniques required on the part of the customer.
