Assignment 2: Connectivity of Arduino / Raspberry Pi with IR Sensor.
Problem Statement:-
Understanding the Connectivity of Arduino / Raspberry Pi with IR Sensor. Write
an application to detect obstacle and notify user using LEDs.
Components: IR Sensor, LED, Arduino board/Raspberry Pi board, connecting
wires etc.
Theory:
Fig.1 IR Sensor
An infrared sensor is an electronic device that emits in order to sense some aspects of the
surroundings. An IR sensor can measure the heat of an object as well as detects motion. These
types of sensors measures only infrared radiation, rather than emitting it that is called as a
passive IR sensor.

Arduino Code:
Arduino Code for Obstacle detection using IR Sensor
int IRSensor = 2; // connect ir sensor to arduino pin 2
int LED = 13; // conect Led to arduino pin 13
void setup()
{
pinMode (IRSensor, INPUT); // sensor pin INPUT
pinMode (LED, OUTPUT); // Led pin OUTPUT
}
void loop()
{
int statusSensor = digitalRead (IRSensor); if
(statusSensor == 1)
digitalWrite(LED, LOW); // LED LOW
else
{
digitalWrite(LED, HIGH); // LED High
