Reflective Photo Interrupt Sensor - TCRT1000 (0.2mm to 4mm)
This TCRT1000 Reflective Optical Sensor has an infrared emitter and NPN Phototransistor all in one package. When the sensor is in front of a reflective surface, the emitted IR beam makes it to the internal phototransistor and closes the circuit. Its compact design and easy integration make it perfect for robotics, automation, and interactive projects.
