KY-032 Obstacle Sensor Module
Overview:
The KY-032 Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Module is an infrared (IR) sensor designed to detect obstacles in its proximity, commonly used in robotics and automation. The module emits infrared light through an IR transmitter and detects the reflection using an IR receiver, allowing it to identify the presence of objects within its detection range. It is particularly suitable for mobile robots, security systems, and other automation projects that require object detection or collision avoidance.
