Lesson 12: Flame sensor
The flame sensor (infrared receiving triode) is specially designed for
robots used to find sources of flame. This sensor has a high sensitivity to
flames. The flame sensor is built on the principle that infrared radiation is
very sensitive to fire. It has a specially designed infrared pick-up tube to
detect fire, then to convert the brightness of the flame into a signal to
convert. These signals are then sent to the central processor and proces-
sed accordingly.
When the sensor approaches a fire, the analog voltage value. With a
multimeter you can check that the voltage is about 0.3 V if there is no fire
nearby. If there is a fire in the vicinity, the voltage is approx. 1.0 V. The
higher the voltage, the closer the fire.
For this project is required:
1x Mega2560 board
1x USB cable
1x Flame sensor
1x Active buzzer
(with sticker)
1x 10 kΩ resistor
1x Breadboard
6x Jumper cable
