Hello,
I want to detect the position of a foot on a single step for one of my projects.
I was thinking of designing an infrared proximity sensor. I have seen that the GP2Y0A21YK could make it.
However, I was thinking of a cheeper solution with one iRed LED and a phototransistor.
I have seen many project on the web using the IS471F. However, these ones were used only at short distance, max 10cm.
Do you think I can use the IS471F to detect foot on a step, i.e. distance of detection max 70cm?
Thank you
