It's light that you can't see, but is all around you! Infrared technology is used in thermometers, distance sensors, remote controls, and heaps more.
- IR Receiver Diode - TSOP38238SKU: SEN-10266 Brand: SparkfunUse this simple IR receiver for infrared remote control of your next project. With low power consumption and an easy to use package, it mates well with embedded electronics and can be used with common IR remotes.
- Photo Interrupter - GP1A57HRJ00FSKU: SEN-09299 Brand: SparkfunThis sensor is composed of an infrared emitter on one upright and a shielded infrared detector on the other. By emitting a beam of infrared light from one upright to the other, the sensor can detect when an object passes between the uprights, breaking the beam. Used for many applications including optical limit switches, pellet dispensing, general object detection, etc. Gap width = 10mm
- Optical Detector / Phototransistor - QRD1114SKU: SEN-00246 Brand: SparkfunThis sensor uses an infrared emitted diode combined with an infrared phototransistor to detect the reflected infrared signal. Ideal for sensing black-to-white transitions or can be used to detect nearby objects (.5-1cm).
- Mini Basic PIR Sensor - BL412SKU: ADA4667 Brand: AdafruitPIR sensors are used to detect motion from pets/humanoids from about 5 meters away (possibly works on zombies, not guaranteed). This sensor is much smaller than most PIR modules, which makes it great for unobtrusive projects. It's also fully-contained - only needs power, ground and a resistor to set the delay time - and breadboard or perfboard friendly.

- Pololu 38 kHz IR Proximity Sensor, Fixed Gain, Low BrightnessSKU: POLOLU-2579 Brand: PololuThis module features a fixed-gain, 38 kHz modulated IR sensor and a corresponding IR LED with oscillator circuit to make a tiny proximity sensor. This low-brightness version draws an average of 8 mA and has a typical sensing range up to approximately 12 inches (30 cm).
- Pololu 38 kHz IR Proximity Sensor, Fixed Gain, High BrightnessSKU: POLOLU-2578 Brand: PololuThis module features a fixed-gain, 38 kHz modulated IR sensor and a corresponding IR LED with oscillator circuit to make a tiny proximity sensor. This high-brightness version draws an average of 16 mA at 5 V and has a typical sensing range up to approximately 24 inches (60 cm).
