If the signal is transferred from the receiver, then it will be reached to LED
which will be connected. LED will glow up. We can change the range by
adopting potentiometer. By adjusting potentiometer, we can change the
range.

Introduction
The schematic diagram of the obstacle detector using LM358 is given by:
This current when flows through the 10k resistor, causes potential
difference (voltage) to develop. The magnitude of this voltage is given by
Ohm's law, V=IR. As the value of resistor is constant, the voltage across
the resistor is directly proportional to the magnitude of current flowing,
which in turn is directly proportional to the amount of Infra-Red waves
incident on the IR photodiode. So, when any object is brought nearer to the
IR LED, Photo-Diode pair, the amount of IR rays from IR LED which
reflects and falls on the IR photodiode increases and therefore voltage at
the resistor increases (from the deduction in previous para).
We compare this voltage change (nearer the object, more is the voltage at
10K resistor / IR photodiode) with a fixed reference voltage (Created using
a potentiometer).
Hardware used:
1. LM 358 IC
2. 1 Infrared LED Photodiode pair
3. Resistors: 2 x 270R, 10K ohms
4. Potentiometer: 10K
5. Breadboard
6. Power Supply: 9V
7. Few Breadboard connectors
Applications
It is used in curve path detection during driving a vehicle.
During parking of car.
Can be used in walking stick of blind person.
