You can control the IR LED and turn it on to bounce IR off objects to determine their reflectivity. White \u0026amp; light colored stuff will bounce the light, so  you can detect it. Black \u0026amp; dark colored stuff will absorb the IR light so that it isn't detected. Likewise, if something isn't in the way of the sensor, it won't trigger either. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese sensors are handy when you want to detect if something has passed by the sensor, or a very simple hand-detector.

Since there is a microcontroller inside the module, with some empty FLASH memory, the newest firmware now allows sending commands to do internal logging to that FLASH. The only thing is that you do need to have the Flora mainboard send the \"Start Logging\" command. However, after that message is sent, the Flora can go to sleep and does not need to wake up to talk to the GPS anymore to reduce power consumption. The time, date, longitude, latitude, and height is logged every 15 seconds and only when there is a fix. The internal FLASH can store about 16 hours of data, it will automatically append data so you don't have to worry about accidentally losing data if power is lost. It is not possible to change what is logged and how often, as its hardcoded into the module but Adafruit found that this arrangement covers many of the most common GPS datalogging requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComes with one fully assembled and tested module.

It can do up to 10 location updates a second for high speed, high sensitivity logging, or tracking. Power usage is incredibly low, only 20 mA during navigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest of all, Adafruit added all the extra goodies you could ever want: an ultra-low dropout 3.3V regulator so you can power it with 3.3-5VDC in, 5V level safe inputs, ENABLE pin so you can turn off the module using any microcontroller pin or switch, a footprint for optional CR1220 coin cell to keep the RTC running and allow warm starts and a tiny bright red LED. The LED blinks at about 1Hz while it's searching for satellites and blinks once every 15 seconds when a fix is found to conserve power. If you want to have an LED on all the time, we also provide the FIX signal out on a pin so you can put an external LED on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo features that really stand out about version 3 MTK3339-based module are the external antenna functionality and the built-in data-logging capability. The module has a standard ceramic patch antenna that gives it -165 dBm sensitivity, but when you want to have a bigger antenna, you can snap on any 3V active GPS antenna via the uFL connector. The module will automatically detect the active antenna and switch over! Most GPS antennas use SMA connectors \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-sma-to-ufl-u-fl-ipx-ipex-rf-adapter-cable\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eso you may want to pick up one of our uFL to SMA adapters.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other cool feature of the new MTK3339-based module (which Adafruit have tested with great success) is the built-in datalogging ability. Since there is a microcontroller inside the module, with some empty FLASH memory, the newest firmware now allows sending commands to do internal logging to that FLASH. The only thing is that you do need to have a microcontroller send the \"Start Logging\" command. However, after that message is sent, the microcontroller can go to sleep and does not need to wake up to talk to the GPS anymore to reduce power consumption. The time, date, longitude, latitude, and height are logged every 15 seconds and only when there is a fix. The internal FLASH can store about 16 hours of data, it will automatically append data so you don't have to worry about accidentally losing data if power is lost.

This resistance range is well suited to work directly with the internal pull-ups of many microcontrollers such as AVRs and PICs.

Unlike sonars that bounce ultrasonic waves, the 'cone' of sensing is very narrow.
