WIP - Train Detection Sensor for LEGO® Train and Monorail

Work in Progress - Train Detection Sensor for LEGO® Train and Monorail

This video shows our train detection sensor for LEGO® trains and monorail. The train sensor emits IR and detects the reflected amount. It's designed to detect trains, it's focused to see objects that are 1 to 2 studs away from the sensor, it's not affected by objects that are further than 6 studs away. The sensor works during day or night.

It can be used with the nControl software or with your DIY Arduino based train control system. The sensor can easily be mounted on LEGO® train track; there's also an adapter to mount it on monorail track.

You can fully program the behavior of the sensor using the nControl sensor tile. In operational mode, the sensor tile shows the detected amount of IR in real time. In the layout shown in this video the sensor controls a traffic light, cross and monoswitch. We ran this setup for over an hour without any issues.
