Circuit Documentation

Summary of the Circuit

This circuit is designed around an Arduino UNO microcontroller and includes a variety of components such as an LCD screen with I2C interface, two IR sensors, a red LED, and a buzzer. The Arduino UNO controls the LED and buzzer and reads inputs from the IR sensors. The LCD screen is used to display data or messages. The circuit is powered by the Arduino's 5V output, and all components share a common ground connection.
