Pololu Digital Distance Sensor 25cm

Pololu's compact lidar-based distance sensor is designed to identify the presence of objects within a range of up to 25cm. This sensor is equipped with a single digital output that drives low when an object is detected, otherwise, it remains high. Operating on an input voltage range of 3.0V to 5.5V, this sensor is highly versatile. Its 2.54mm pin spacing is compatible with standard solderless breadboards and 2.54mm perfboards, making it an easy-to-use addition to any project.

The Pololu distance sensor is perfect for a variety of applications. It can be used in robotics for obstacle detection and avoidance, in automation systems for object recognition, or in safety devices to trigger an alarm when an object comes within a certain distance. Its compact size and low power requirements make it suitable for portable and battery-powered applications, while its robust design ensures reliable operation even in harsh environments.

One of the unique properties of this sensor is its digital output, which provides a direct indication of object detection. This eliminates the need for complex signal processing, making it easier to integrate into your projects. Its wide input voltage range also allows it to work with a variety of power sources, adding to its flexibility.

Overall, the Pololu distance sensor offers a simple, reliable, and versatile solution for object detection. Its easy-to-use design, combined with its robust performance, make it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications.
