Weekly Progress
This week I search about photo interrupter sensor. The Photo Interrupters consist of an
infrared emitter and a phototransistor/photo IC, located face-to-face on the optical axes in a
leaded package. They detect object passing through the slot between the emitter and detector.
There are many kinds photo interrupter in slot width and depth in accordance with detecting
object. The photo Interrupters are simple to use and widely used for object detection and
automatic counting. We use Photo Interrupter sensor for test count mosquitos.

Engineering Analysis
Strong Point
- High sensitivity
- High analytic
Week Point
- The object is translucent so the sensor can't sense it.
Next Week Job
- I will think about design high performance circuit in count mosquito for our project.
