Parallax Inc.
We’re making some changes at Parallax to really focus in on what we do best: our educational programs and our own custom multicore microcontrollers. This focus means more curriculum on learn.parallax.com, more tools and support for the Propeller, more American manufacturing, and a massive sale to simplify the product line!

QTI Sensor
555-27401
-
The QTI Sensor is a close-proximity infrared emitter/receiver that is able to differentiate between a dark surface) with low IR reflectivity) and a light surface (with high IR reflectivity). These little sensors can be very handy for line following, maze navigation, or sensing the outer rim of a SumoBot ring. Wiring options allow it to be used digitally for fast black/white line following, or as an analog sensor to detect different shades of gray. A daylight filter is built into the sensor.

LaserPING 2m Rangefinder
28041
-
The LaserPING 2m Rangefinder provides an easy method of distance measurement. This near-infrared, time-of-flight (TOF) sensor is ideal for taking measurements between moving or stationary objects. This sensor works well in applications where ultrasonic sensors fail: soft objects and angled surfaces.

4-Directional Tilt Sensor
28036
-
The 4-Directional Tilt Sensor uses an optical system to provide positional feedback in four directions. Commonly used in many smart phones and digital cameras to adjust the screen display when the device is rotated, it is also quite fun to add to your microcontroller project as an affordable and easy-to-use human input device.

Product
TSL1401 Linescan Sensor Daughterboard
28317
-
The Parallax TSL1401 Linescan Imaging Daughterboard provides one-dimensional sight to almost any microcontroller. It is designed for plug-in compatibility with Parallax’s BS2pe Motherboard but can be used with other BASIC Stamp modules, the Parallax Propeller, the SX, PICs, and AVRs, to name just a few. It is a platform suitable not only for evaluating TAOS’s TSL1401R imaging chip, but also for incorporation into OEM products, as well as hobbyist, robotic, and educational platforms.

Product
PIR Sensor With LED Signal
555-28027
-
The PIR Sensor detects motion by measuring changes in the infrared (heat) levels emitted by surrounding objects. When motion is detected a LED lights up the lens dome as a visual signal, and the module also outputs a high signal on its output pin.
