IR ARRAY SENSOR

                  IR array sensor consists of more than one IR sensor. Each IR sensor is capable of detecting black and white colors. The array is capable of emitting sounds. IR array can perform object detection at proper distances. We can interface IR array sensor with Arduino to develop automation projects in a wide range.

Application:

• Double line following robot.
• Automatic street  light turn ON vehicle presence.
• Detection of multiple objecs.

Sample Project With Arduino:

                                      In this we going to detect the object or obstacle using the IR array and it indicate the object detected in which array.

Materials required:

• IR array sensor
• Arduino UNO
• Connecting wires

Circuit:

Code:

int IRpin = 0;

int IRpin1 = 1;

int IRpin2 = 2;

int IRpin3 = 3;

void setup()

{

  Serial.begin(9600);

  pinMode(IRpin, INPUT);

  pinMode(IRpin1, INPUT);

  pinMode(IRpin2, INPUT);

  pinMode(IRpin3, INPUT);

}

 

void loop()

{

 if (digitalRead(IRpin) == HIGH)

  {

    Serial.println("Obstacle detected in First IR Sensor");

  }

  if (digitalRead(IRpin1) == HIGH)

{

    Serial.println("Obstacle detected in Second IR Sensor");

  }

  if (digitalRead(IRpin2) == HIGH)

  {

    Serial.println("Obstacle detected in Third IR Sensor");

  }

  if (digitalRead(IRpin3) == HIGH)

  {

    Serial.println("Obstacle detected in Forth IR Sensor");

  }

}
