The sensor is really just an infrared photodiode inside of a tube. The diode is connected to an analog input pin on an Arduino. The sensor can be pointed at an object, and the Arduino can sense ...

Color sensing (as well as detecting empty spaces) settled on IR-based sensors commonly used in line-following robots. You can watch the clock in action in the video embedded below just under the ...

That pulse oximeter piece was the kickoff to the series; this one, a dissection of an infrared thermometer, is the second ...

Powered by an Arduino Uno, this laser tripwire alarm project works much like those in movies. There's a tripwire — made up of a laser directed at a light sensor — that's placed somewhere the intruder ...

So you finally decided to hop on the Arduino bandwagon and start making electronic projects as a fun hobby. As a beginner ...

An IR sensor is located near the TV and wired to the receiver, which can be many feet away in the equipment rack. The receiver has an amplifier and an "IR blaster" that showers IR signals to all ...

During the fall and spring semesters of their senior year, engineering students at Saint Louis University School of Science and Engineering participate in a capstone experience called Senior Design.

And that's really where this whole project started. That's this sensor right here. And what that does is it basically shines ...

Safety features include a tip-over sensor, an automatic shut-off timer, and a cool-touch exterior. We’re big fans of the Dr. Infrared portable ... information into project tutorials, maintenance ...

Commissions do not affect our editors' opinions or evaluations. Some people naturally possess project management skills. You know who you are. The innate ability to keep things in order and keep ...

With reasonable pricing, an interface that anyone can learn to use, and a good balance of features, GanttPro is one of the best project management tools. We also appreciate that it includes custom ...
