This IR proximity contactless button makes for a good replacement for typical push buttons in situations where touching the button isn't required or desirable (especially in this day and age). This button includes a b...

SKU: AF-3316 | Brand: Adafruit

The Adafruit VL6180X is a close-range Time-of-Flight (ToF) distance sensor from ST that measures from approximately 5 mm to 100 mm (up to 150–200 mm in good conditions). It also includes a built-in ambient light senso...

SKU: PL-136 | Brand: Pololu

The Sharp GP2Y0A21YK0F is an infrared distance sensor that outputs an analogue voltage corresponding to the distance of the nearest object within its 10–80 cm detection range. Using IR triangulation, it provides relia...

SKU: PL-2578 | Brand: Pololu

This module features a fixed-gain, 38 kHz modulated IR sensor and a corresponding IR LED with oscillator circuit to make a tiny proximity sensor. This high-brightness version draws an average of 16 mA at 5&...

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...
