How Does An IR Sensor Work!

Image
 Arduino UNO is a microcontroller board- it is the brain of any electronics project. IR sensor, on the other hand, is an infrared rays transmitter and receiver. In the following project, we will learn the working principle of IR sensor followed by its application as a discriminator between black and white surfaces and as an obstacle detector with Arduino UNO. IR Sensor FC-51 IR Sensor emits and detected infrared radiations. IR radiations are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, with wavelength higher than that of visible light, and are generally invisible to the human eye. The IR sensor consists of: 1.       IR Emitter LED: Emits infrared light 2.       IR Receiver: A photodiode with resistance depending on the amount of IR light falling on it 3.       Distance Adjuster: Changes detection distance 4.       Vcc Pin: Provides 3–5 V input voltage 5.       Gnd Pin: Ground input 6.       Out Pin: Transmits output signal from the sensor to Arduino 7.       Obstac

Operating Bluetooth Module HC-05 With Arduino

Image
Introduction: Have you only used Bluetooth to transfer files between devices? Then change the way, and learn something new today. In this article, we bring you the Bluetooth Module HC-05-with which you will be able to control devices with help of Arduino and a Bluetooth App installed on your phone. Give voice commands or press buttons, interact the way you like and control your devices over Bluetooth. This article includes Code, and a video tutorial for a hands-on learning experience. Required Components: 1.       Arduino Board(Arduino UNO in our case) 2.       LED 3.       Bluetooth Module HC-05 4.       Jumper Wires 5.       Breadboard(optional) Code Setup: BlueControl App Setup: The app we are using for this project is Arduino Bluetooth Control on Android . If you are an IOS user then we have an alternative solution for you, ArduinoBlue on AppStore . The IOS app does not support Vocal commands. In the future, if we come across a better alternative for IOS users we will update

Using Potentiometer For Input

Arduino UNO is a microcontroller board- it is the brain of any electronics project. In the following project, we will use Arduino UNO to blink an LED and give a visual demonstration of how high voltages can fuse the LED. Components Required: 1.        Arduino UNO 2.        Arduino Cable 3.        BreadBoard 4.        LED 5.        Resistor 6.         Jumper Wires Assembling: 1.        Connect pin 5 of Arduino to Anode(+) of LED, which is longer lead. 2.        Connect resistor’s one lead with the shorter lead of LED, and the other lead to GND (Ground) of Arduino. 3.        Connect Arduino to your Laptop using Cable. Setting up Software Copy-paste the given code on Arduino IDE and upload it on the board. ALERT! Don’t Fuse Your LED LED will fuse if you provide it a high voltage of 3.3/5V directly from Arduino. Let's see how it fuses in the following video: DON’T TRY THIS YOURSELF, YOUR CIRCUIT MAY CATCH FIRE. End Note: Congratulation! You have su
