Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit integrates an Arduino UNO with two infrared (IR) sensors. The Arduino UNO serves as the central processing unit, controlling and monitoring the IR sensors. The IR sensors are used to detect the presence of objects or motion based on the infrared light they emit and receive. The circuit is powered by the 5V output from the Arduino UNO, and the sensors are interfaced with the digital pins D2 and D3 for signal output.
