Sharp/Socle GP2Y0A41SK0F Analog Distance Sensor 4-30cm

The GP2Y0A41SK0F Sharp analog distance sensor features a detection range of 1.5″ to 12″ (4 cm to 30 cm). The shorter range gives you higher resolution measurements, and the lower minimum detection distance makes this sensor great for detecting very close objects. The distance is indicated by an analog voltage, making this sensor very easy to use.
