Sell Compound Eye

Description

Introduction
Infrared compound eye, made up of several infrared infrared sensitization units, is an electronic part used to detect infrared ray. With only one port, it can read the strongness of infrared rays easily and automatically work out the directions of the maximum value and minimun value.

Feature
1. Standard Joinmax RCU four-line connector. Compatible with two-line I2C interface. It is convinient for user's DIY extention use.
2. With seven lamps, direction indicator points out direction of light source (that is, direction of the maximum value) easily.
3. Digitalized controlling.
4. Data of surrounding environment can be read by *5 commands.
5. It gets two modes. The enhanced mode can detect modulated IR signals, including Robo Cup Junior stepped modulated mode. It filters out background signals.

Usage
Compound eye is mainly used to detect the surrounding infrared rays, whose strongness is called ray value. Compound eye is used widely, for example, to detect lighted candle in the firefighting competition (Mode B), or to tell the ball direction in the soccer match (Mode A/C/D). Modes can be switched by command.
