2.2 Arduino counting machine using IR sensors
Required Components
- Arduino UNO
- IR sensor
- Breadboard
- 16*2 Alphanumeric LCD
- I2C Module for 16x2 (1602) Alphanumeric LCD
- Connecting Wires
This machine counts and sorts the coins in different sections with the help of an Infrared sensor. Here, an arrangement is made where IR sensors are placed to sense different coins, and Arduino UNO is used for processing the data and showing the total count value on 16x2 LCD.
