VCNL4010 Proximity/Light Sensor Module

The VCNL4010 Proximity or Light Sensor is an integrated sensor module that combines a high-precision proximity sensor and an ambient light sensor (ALS) in a single compact package. Using infrared (IR) technology, it enables accurate distance measurement and gesture detection up to several centimeters. Its built-in ambient light sensor provides reliable illumination readings for automatic brightness control in displays and smart devices. With a digital I²C interface, the VCNL4010 offers easy integration with microcontrollers like Arduino, ESP32, STM32, and Raspberry Pi. It is ideal for robotics, smart lighting, touch-less interfaces, and low-power proximity detection applications.
