The Sharp IR Distance Sensor (20-150 cm) measures how far away an object is by detecting reflected infrared light and outputs an analogue voltage that can be read by a microcontroller.
This SHARP distance sensor bounces IR off objects to determine how far away they are. It returns an analogue voltage that can be used to determine how close the nearest object is. Comes with 8" long 3-JST interface wire. These sensors are good for detection between 20cm-150cm. For over 1m distance, we suggest using sonar sensors.
To use, connect black wire to ground, red wire to 5V and white wire to analogue input. The analogue voltage out will range from 3V when an object is only 8" (20 cm) away and 0.4V when the object is 60" (150 cm) away.
