A standalone platform for animal manipulation (with MOMO) and observation (with RFID-MS). Light barriers fall into a category of equipment known as presence detection devices.

Light barriers

A standalone platform for animal observation and manipulation.

This program is a software module for the hardware platform "Light_Barrier_2015_3" developed for two pairs of lightbarriers.

Wide Input Voltage Range: 3.3V to 60V

Example with receiver from Vishay: TSSP58038 and LED Vishay: VSLB3940

Always low level triggered for wire monitoring(breakage).

Two high level signal: 204µA@3,3V -- Two low level signal: 1.49mA@3,3V

Two high level signal: 195µA@5V -- Two low level signal: 1.49mA@5V

Two high level signal: 195µA@13,2V -- Two low level signal: 1.47mA@13,2V

Parameter distance 3,3 Meter: 4mA@12V average

Prototype: Bat counter

The distance from light barrier 1 is 15cm and from light barrier 2 is 13cm.
