Infrared & Thermal Sensors

SKU: AF-6426 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit STHS34PF80 is a compact IR presence and motion sensor that detects human and animal presence up to 4 metres away — without requiring a lens. Unlike traditional chunky PIR sensors with simple digital outpu...

SKU: AF-5970 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit TSMP96000 "Code Learning" Infrared IR Receiver Breakout detects IR signals across a wide frequency range of 20–60 KHz, making it perfect for "code learning" applications where you need your device to work...

SKU: AF-4871 | Brand: Adafruit

A compact passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor that detects movement from people and animals at distances of 2 to 5 metres. Much smaller than standard PIR modules, this sensor is ideal for unobtrusive projects and plu...

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: PL-2454 | Brand: Pololu

The QTR-L-1A reflectance sensor incorporates a right-angle infrared LED and a right-angle phototransistor in an inexpensive, tiny 0.35″ × 0.3″ module that can be mounted almost anywhere and is great for e...

SKU: SF-SEN-11859 | Brand: SparkFun

This is not your typical temperature sensor. The TMP006 Breakout can measure the temperature of an object without making contact with it. By using a thermopile to detect and absorb the infrared energy an object is emi...

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 ...

SKU: DF-SEN0019 | Brand: DFRobot

This is an Arduino infrared distance sensor. It has an adjustable detection range, 3cm - 80cm. It is small, easy to use, assemble, and inexpensive. Useful for robotics, interactive media, industrial assembly line,...

SKU: AF-5940 | Brand: Adafruit

This breakout uses Vishay's TSSP77038 infrared demodulator to give you the raw demodulated output from a 38kHz IR signal, without the extra filtering used in typical remote-control receivers. That makes it a handy cho...

SKU: AF-2167 | Brand: Adafruit

Infrared (IR) break-beam sensors are a simple way to detect motion. They work by having an emitter side that sends out a beam of human-invisible IR light, then a receiver across the way which is sensitive to tha...

SKU: PL-2458 | Brand: Pololu

The QTR-1A reflectance sensor carries a single infrared LED and phototransistor pair in an inexpensive, tiny 0.5" x 0.3" module that can be mounted almost anywhere and is great for edge detection and line fo...

SKU: AF-5939 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit Infrared IR Remote Receiver is a sensitive, wide-range 38 kHz IR receiver board with two selectable sensor orientations — one vertical and one horizontal. A slide switch lets you choose which sensor to re...

SKU: SF-SEN-10740 | Brand: SparkFun

An evaluation board for the MLX90614 non-contact infrared thermometer sensor. It pairs the MLX90614 with an ATmega328 running at 3.3 V (8 MHz Arduino bootloader), giving you a ready-to-use IR temperature sensor with s...
