The power switch with infrared proximity sensor is intended for the recognition of obstructions at distances of a few millimetres to a few centimetres. This compact sensor switch can be used to open a ...

Proximity sensing based on infrared signal acquisition and processing typically requires two parts to form the optical front end: an infrared LED and an optical sensor. The infrared LED beams infrared ...

In this CD4017 project, I have shown how to make a simple motion sensor switch using 4017 IC and E18-D80NK IR proximity sensor to automate the washroom light. You can also use this circuit as a motion ...

Vishay has introduced a new infrared (IR) sensor designed to provide fast, low-cost proximity sensing in a variety of systems. The TSSP4056 is the industry's first fixed-gain sensor containing a ...

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 ...

Circuit sculpture is a great way to elevate your soldering and electronics skills to the realm of three-dimensional art. In this case, art can be practical, too. Take [romaindurocher]’s interactive ...

In order to help his friend prepare for a talk at DEFCON this weekend, [Craig] built an IR photodiode amplifier circuit. The circuit extended the detection range of the hack from a few inches to a few ...
