The KY-010 Light Break Sensor Module is a compact optical interrupt sensor designed for accurate, non-contact object detection in Arduino and microcontroller-based projects. It uses an infrared LED and phototransistor pair positioned in a slotted housing — when an object passes through the slot, it breaks the infrared beam and triggers a digital output signal.
This module is ideal for hobbyists, students, and electronics enthusiasts working on speed detection, position sensing, counting systems, and automation projects. Common applications include rotary encoders, conveyor belt counters, end-stop detection in 3D printers, and motor RPM measurement.
The KY-010 requires no additional components and is fully compatible with standard Arduino sensor shields, making it a straightforward plug-and-play addition to any project. Its clean digital output ensures reliable and noise-free signal detection.
