{"product_id":"maker-object-simple-object-sensor-for-beginners","title":"Maker Object - Simple Object Sensor for Beginners","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Maker Object is a tiny digital infrared (IR) proximity sensor designed for object\/obstacle detection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IR signal is modulated at 38kHz making it immune to ambient light, and the sensor has an NPN output with an internal pull-up resistor. Its output is low when an object is detected.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sensing range is adjustable via the small opening at the front of the sensor, making it easily accessible even when the sensor is mounted on your robot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its small form factor, the Maker Object can be easily fitted to a tiny robot. The 90-degree pin header is also very handy allowing you to plug the sensor directly to a PCB or breadboard for quick testing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the compact size, the sensing distance is not compromised. With a maximum sensing distance of 60cm (Black Surface) - 140cm (White Surface), the Maker Object is well suited to various applications such as a sumo robot, obstacle avoidance robot, safety sensor for automatic gates, parking lot occupancy sensor, entrance sensor and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating Voltage: 4.5V - 5.5V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReverse polarity protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreadboard friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eActive low output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNPN output with internal pull up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable Sensing Range: 15cm - 60cm (Black Surface), 40cm - 140cm (White Surface)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\nDatasheet (pdf)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n3D CAD File (zip)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cytron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55919687860297,"sku":"prs1787258150140","price":10.35,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/7185\/7993\/files\/maker-object---simple-object-sensor-for-beginners_1.jpg?v=1787258154","url":"https:\/\/streetclad.shop\/products\/maker-object-simple-object-sensor-for-beginners","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
