Circuit Documentation

Summary of the Circuit

The circuit described by the provided inputs consists of two IR sensors, two 1 Channel 5V Relay Modules, a 7.4V power source, and a motor. The IR sensors are used to detect objects or motion and trigger the relay modules. The relay modules control the power flow to the motor, which is powered by the 7.4V source. The circuit is designed to activate the motor when one of the IR sensors outputs a signal.
