The TCRT1000 is used on the Khepera2, the e-Puck and on the Didelbot.
Since Didel order them in quantities, we can sell them for a good price. Competitors of the TCRT1000 are the CNY-70 and the SFH9201 |

The principle is to send current in the IR diode, and measure the voltage drop on the prototransistor. RL is selected to have half voltage for a preferred distance. Sensitivity to ambient light can be reduced by measuring the dark current, the current with the IR LED on, and do sme difference. See for more (doc in French) www.didel.com/doc/sens/DocIrt.pdf |
