Trang 1Photointerrupters and photoreflectors can be bought prepackaged or constructed separately from an infrared LED and a photodiode or phototransistor, after making certain the detector is sensitive to the wavelength produced by the LED
Photoreflector units are also available with more advanced position sensitive detectors (PSDs), which report the location of infrared light incident on the sensing surface (Fig 19.7) The fixed location of the LED relative to the PSD, as well as the location of the image of the infrared light on the PSD, allows the
