FAQ

Can I get a similar sensor with greater resolution and field of view? I am expecting the specifications of good quality web-cam. If not can you tell me where I can buy ?Thank you.

Hi, we're using this sensor for a light gun prototype. I have a few technical questions.
Is there any way to bypass the arduino libraries and get the raw data from the sensor for a single point detection ?
Does it return a value 0-1023 for both axes or returns a value proportional to its resolution 128 x 96 ?
Also, can you make avaiable the above processing examples ?
Is there any lens you can suggest we can mount in order to widen it's angle of vision ?

thank you.

Hi, The sensor has arrived and can be purchased outright if needed.

Can it output temperature data also?

Hi, I applied the tutorial on arduino micro but the camera is still not available and the red camera led is always red. What is the problem?

I bought 2 sensors but I realized that they are out of stock, any information on when they will have more units available?

Hello, I recived this module today and I tried two codes, the sample code from the wiki page and another one called simpleDemo.ino to test it, but I got random chars on the serial monitor. Can anyone help me with this? Greetings.

hi - just received 2 cameras. i uploaded the simpleDemo sketch to an arduino UNO and the readings i'm getting from the serial monitor are all 1023 - no matter where i point the camera to (i also set up 2 IR red leds). i use the most simple setup - just power, GND SCL and SDA - see attached picture. this is the same behavior with both cameras. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...

Hello everyone, I have the sample running in my Arduino IDE - so far, so good. What I actually need is C++ code that gives me the X-Y positions similar to the 'processing' screenshot above. I have a Windows C++ program that opens the serial port and listens to the incoming data. Is there some C++ sample code that shows the unpacking of the incoming serial port data? Thanks!

Hi, Is it normal to upload a program about uno to the uno board?
If it is normal, then connect the sensor to the main board, restart the main board and show me the result picture

Or should I use 4 leds at least...?

I input example code( arduino and processing).. I can get only (0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)values.. and the values never change, so I changed led lighter than before.(led is ok because I can get data from other ir camera. ) but It doesn't work. In my thinking, if I upload sample code, I can get x,y coordinates. but I don't know why... may I change any code? or have to adjust camera sensor(like bolt and nut)?

Hello~~ I input simpleDemo.ino this camera. but the message is device is not available.... I bought this last week, so I have to check if it's broken ... in a short time( to exchange)!! help me plz~~ let me know which parts I have to check in this situation.

we test that the wavelength of 850/890/940/950 is ok and the best effect is 940nm. it's better to control the distance between the range.

It is unclear to me which way is up. When I place the sensor so that the label that says "TOP" is upwards, X and Y are inverted. I want the sensor's larger field of view to be horizontal. How should I position it?

You will need I2C multiplexer (https://www.dfrobot.com/pro... to manage I2C address and control multiple I2C devices.

Will the sensor work with IR signals from a TV remote for example?

Hi, I have followed all the instructions, however I cannot get the camera to work. Is there anything I can do to determine whether the camera works or not?

Good news, problem solved. It was a conductivity fault around pinout A4 on the nano board.
Thanks for your help anyway.

Yes I'm using it because it didn't work with the wiki program.
I'm using a arduino nano board, A4 is for SDA and A5 for SCL on the board.
Without plugging the camera, when testing A5 with a multimeter, I get 4.7v. A4 is stuck at 0v.
With the camera plugged, the red, yellow and green wires are around 4.7v.
I think it is a hardware issue on the board, no ?

Hi, is there a way to test the camera ?
I keep getting "no I2C devices found", want to make sure the camera is fine.
Thanks
