Distance & Ranging Sensors

SKU: DF-SEN0239 | Brand: DFRobot

A digital infrared proximity sensor with adjustable detection range from 0 to 200 cm. Outputs a simple digital signal — HIGH when an obstacle is detected, LOW when clear. The detection threshold is adjustable via a re...

SKU: SF-SEN-15177 | Brand: SparkFun

The SparkFun VCNL4040 Proximity Sensor Breakout detects objects qualitatively up to 20 cm away using infrared proximity sensing. It also includes a built-in ambient light sensor, making it a versatile dual-function mo...

SKU: DF-SEN0014 | Brand: DFRobot

The Sharp distance sensors are a popular choice for many projects that require accurate distance measurements. This IR sensor is more economical than sonar rangefinders, yet it provides much better performance than o...

SKU: AF-1031 | Brand: Adafruit

This SHARP distance sensor bounces IR off objects to determine how far away they are. It returns an analog voltage that can be used to determine how close the nearest object is. Comes with 8" long 3-JST interface wire...

SKU: AF-466 | Brand: Adafruit

The VCNL4010 sensor is a nice way to add a small-distance proximity sensor to your microcontroller project. For longer distances (in the range of cm, you can use a SHARP IR distance sensor, but those are only good ...

SKU: AF-164 | Brand: Adafruit

The Sharp GP2Y0A21YK0F is an infrared distance sensor that measures distances from 10 cm to 80 cm by bouncing IR light off objects. It outputs an analogue voltage proportional to distance — approximately 3 V at 10 cm ...
