IR tachometer, weird readings

Not yet. Stray light could be my problem as well. Going to try shielding it as best I can and see what the results are. I believe these sensors are extremely sensitive.

Debouncing in code would be difficult for me because of the range of rpm I’m measuring. Most values I would exclude with denounce code would be acceptable values at other RPM’s. What I could do is check for a percentage variance from the last reading and discard it if it was higher than x% difference. Even then however I have to take acceleration into account.
