Controlling an LED with Arduino Using an IR Sensor An Infrared (IR) sensor is a commonly used device for proximity detection and object sensing. When combined with an Arduino and an LED, it can create ...

Have you ever noticed how shopping malls, parking lots, or event venues seem to track the number of people or cars present inside? You might think they use an AI camera to count them, but in reality, ...

Have you ever wondered how speed guns measure the speed of moving vehicles or how an athlete's sprint speed is recorded? Normally these speed sensors work with radar or laser technology to bounce back ...

Photoelectric sensors detect objects and surface changes using variations in optical properties. Each sensor includes a light emitter and a receiver, with most relying on infrared light. In optical ...

This project involves creating a simple door status monitor using an Arduino Uno, an IR sensor, and an LED. The purpose of this project is to detect whether a door is open or closed and display the ...

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’s a way to program an Arduino wirelessly while still using the stock IDE. It uses an alternative bootloader called SuperDuplex along with an IR receiver like the ones used for TV remotes. As you ...

Some readers may recall building a line-following robot during their school days. Involving some IR LEDs, perhaps a bit of LEGO, and plenty of trial-and-error, it was fun on a tiny scale. Now imagine ...
