This is a simple to use infra-read sensor switch. Power it up with 5V and it can detects object within 3 to 50cm. It is widely used in mobile robot for obstacle detection, interactive media, industrial assembly line and many other applications.
The detection distance can be adjusted from 3- 50cm. It comes with a LED to show the sensing status.
The output pin is an open collector meaning you will need a pull up resistor on the output pin. The open drain setup allows multiple sensors to be connected on a single input pin. If any of the motion sensors go off, the input pin will be pulled low.
