I want to make a simple laser tag gun with a led as emitter and a ir sensitive diode as receiver, it will be a compact unit i hope firing more then 100 meters easily. but i dont know what receiver to use, i know that there are some tsop 17.. very cool receivers but 2 $ dollars each and i need 12, its getting out of budget so i tought of simply diodes( if it works) but i know that they produce a leakage relative to the irradiation of it, and i need to get an 5 volt to make it work so:
How can i get the .1 volt to 2 volts leak to always 5 volts?
and will it be sensible enough? what do you think i should do?
In my simple cicruit that i provide, i only use 555, no pic(even if i have experience in programming i never compiled stuffed into microcontrollers like 16c...) because i dont want to get into pic prog. for now so thats it( i know that there might be bugs in the circuit, but its a first draw so dont care of it).
when the gun is hit, a long buzz is heared, when you shoot, a short buzz is heard.The gun will be put in a pvc gun style casing.
Please post back and thank you if you do so.
