IR Sensor Module for Arduino & Robotics Projects (5V, Adjustable Range)

The IR Sensor Module is a basic yet powerful electronic sensor used to detect objects and obstacles using infrared light. It works by transmitting IR signals and detecting the reflected light from nearby objects.
This sensor is widely used in robotics, automation, and STEM education. Students can use it to build projects such as obstacle-avoiding robots, object counters, line-following robots, and smart automation systems.
For parents and educators, this module is an excellent starting point to help students understand how sensors interact with the real world. It introduces practical concepts of electronics, logic building, and programming in a simple and hands-on manner, making learning both fun and meaningful.
