Phidgets 10cm IR Reflective Sensor

• Phidgets IR Reflective Sensor
• Works in dark and well lit environments
• Max. Detecting Distance: 100 mm

This Phidgets 10cm IR Reflective Sensor features an IR proximity sensor that can detect opaque objects within 10 cm and connects to an Analog Input or VINT Hub port.

This sensor can detect the presence of objects at a distance of up to 10cm away, depending on how well the surface of the object reflects infrared light. When an object enters the range of detection, the output voltage becomes zero, and when it leaves, it returns to 5V. The 1103 works just as well in both dark and well lit environments.

The sensor cannot detect the presence of the object if it is emitting large amounts of light, such as a light bulb.
