The DFRobot Gravity IR Positioning Camera is a compact, high-sensitivity sensor capable of tracking up to four infrared heat or IR sources simultaneously. Designed for easy integration with Arduino and AVR boards via a simple I2C interface, it enables real-time positioning within a 33° horizontal and 23° vertical field of view. Ideal for robot navigation, flame detection, and motion tracking, this lightweight module offers accurate IR source localization in a small form factor.
