Y-010 Broken Light Blocking Sensor
The KY-010 Photo Interrupter module consists of an optical emitter/detector in the front and two resistors (1 k? and 33 ?) in the back. The sensor uses a beam of light between the emitter and detector to check if the path between both is being blocked by an opaque object.
