Measuring the speed of a rotating object is a common requirement. Knowing the speed of table and ceiling fans, as well as kitchen appliances such as mixers and grinders, can often be useful. However, ...

The TCRT5000 sensor is an infrared reflective sensor. This library is written to use with a TCRT5000 breakout's analog output and handle a threshold in software. These breakouts have typical two ...

Photoelectric sensors detect objects and surface changes using variations in optical properties. Each sensor includes a light emitter and a receiver, with most relying on infrared light. In optical ...

Obstacle sensor, based on TCRT5000, uses infrared diode and photo-receiver to detect obstacle in front of it - emitted light just reflects back to the sensor. Onboard, you'll find voltage comparator, ...

I recently had to build an infrared close proximity sensor that could tell if something was dropped in a parcel delivery drop box. After some searching, I ended up using a microcontroller and a piece ...

When comparing the Raspberry Pi and Arduino, it's no secret that the Pi is undoubtedly the more powerful board. It is, after all, a single-board computer (SBC) that can run a fully functional ...

A robust natural language processing (NLP) tool, ChatGPT can produce thoughtful, contextually-aware answers to a variety of queries and prompts. OpenAI's GPT-3.5 architecture, a sizable language model ...

Thermal cameras can cost well into the five-figure range if you’re buying high-resolution models with good feature sets. New models can be so advanced that their export and use is heavily controlled ...
