Abstract
The field of obstacle detection is very popular and vast these days. Lot of technologies has been developed for obstacle-detection phenomenon in recent years. Sensors are the main entity in these technologies. Systems' ability to detect an object, sensitivity, range, cost and quality, all are dependent on the fact that which type of sensors are being used is these systems. So intensive understanding for working of these detectors is mandatory to choose the best sensor according to the application-design. For this purpose, it is very necessary to understand the electronic and physical build of the sensors. Infrared sensors are most often used sensors in obstacle and motion detector systems. This study accounts for understanding the implementation of infrared sensors by using two photoelectric phenomena, Thru-beam and Diffuse- Reflection, to analyzing their function and suitability with respect to different applications. Proteous ISIS 7 is used for simulations. Practically measured results are also shown. Both simulation and experimental results are found in good agreement with theoretical knowledge.
