Five infrared flame receivers on one round board, spaced about 30 degrees apart to cover roughly a 120 degree arc, so a robot can tell not just that there is a flame but roughly where it is. Each channel brings out its own analog reading and its own digital trigger, with a single trim pot setting the threshold for all five. Detects the 760-1100 nm light a flame gives off, at around 80 cm for a lighter.
