Silly Job Title: Conductor Captain. I am the Conductor Captain!

In this video we take a look at the KY-010 Photo Interrupter. This module sets up a light beam and can detect when the beam is broken. We interface this module with an Arduino Uno after testing it with a simple circuit on the test board to figure out which pins are which. The pin labeled “S” is the signal, the pin labeled “-” is the negative or ground, and the middle pin is 5V VCC. The signal is high when the beam is interrupted and low otherwise.

There is more info about this sensor here: KY-010 Photo Interrupter Module at ArduinoModulesInfo.

Source code is here: 2025-10-06-KY-010-Photo-Interrupter.ino.

We use the Riden RD6006 Bench Power Supply to power our test circuits.

We use the EEVblog BM2257 Digital Multimeter to measure voltages.
