How accurate can these IR proximity sensors be? My desire is to use them inside a Nerf dart clip/magazine to calculate remaining ammunition based on how full the clip is. Will these be accurate enough? Is there a better way to do this? (Keep in mind the clip must somehow electrically connect to the blaster)
Nerf Clips/Magazines look like this Note: This clip is modified with a rail to allow for non-Nerf (Stefan) darts to be used
