BOSON Flame Sensor i7

SKU: BOS0007

The flame sensor can be used to detect fire sources or other light sources with wavelength of 760nm-1100nm and detection angle of up to 60 degrees. It comes with two M3 mounting holes for easy mounting. This sensor can work at -25-85℃ with stable and reliable performance. Although it's designed to sense fire, it is not fireproof. So please keep a distance from the flame when using it to avoid burning sensor. The sensor works well with maincontrollers such as micro:bit and Arduino, and supports not only Mind+ and makecode graphical programming but also non-programming projects.

    This article offers a step-by-step guide on creating a micro:bit fire alarm system without programming, detailing hardware requirements, wiring instructions, and sample code to facilitate easy setup and operation.

    2. Example Code for micro:bit-Fire Alarm (Programming)

    This article offers a detailed guide on creating a fire alarm system using micro:bit, including hardware setup, wiring instructions, and example programming code in Mind+ and Makecode, ideal for educational purposes and DIY projects.

    3. Example Code for micro:bit-Firefighting Robot (Programming)

    We use servo to simulate the switch of water tank, when a fire occurs, the servo will rotate to turn on the switch to put out the fire and the buzzer will buzz to give an alarm after the flame sensor detects the flame.
