Adafruit IR distance sensor includes cable (20cm-150cm)

This SHARP distance sensor uses infrared technology to measure proximity, ideal for applications needing accurate short-range object detection. It converts distance readings into an analog voltage output, providing easy integration with microcontroller projects.

Specifications:

• Detection range: 20 cm to 150 cm
• Analog voltage output: 3V to 0.4V
• Interface wire: 8" long, 3-JST connector

Usage is straightforward: connect the black wire to ground, red to 5V, and the white wire to the analog input. This sensor offers reliable performance for applications from robotic navigation to object avoidance. For more precise distance needs beyond 1 meter, consider implementing sonar sensors.
