IR sensor instead of button

[CShouse1970]

I'm looking for the coding to trigger each video using IR break beam sensors instead of the momentary buttons. Would this be a simple code change?

That depends on how the IR ports work. The Button just connects to the specified pin and ground. This

ProJEcts/Haptic Board/HapticBoard.py

Line 118 in e421b75

for gpiopin in videotochannelmap.keys():

loop sets up the internal pullup so when the button is pressed the signal is set to ground and thus a falling edge is specified to trigger a new video. So if you are lucky you might not have to change the code at all or only slighlty modify it given that the sensor has a simple digital output port.
