Working Principle of Optical Dust Sensor

The GP2Y1014AU0F works based on infrared light scattering technology. Inside the sensor, an infrared LED emits light into a small detection chamber.

When dust or smoke particles pass through this chamber, they scatter the infrared light. A photodiode positioned at a specific angle detects the scattered light. The intensity of scattered light is proportional to the concentration of dust particles in the air.

The sensor converts this detected signal into an analog voltage output, which can be read by a microcontroller such as Arduino to estimate dust density.
