A sensor (300) in an aircraft cargo handling system may comprise a housing (302), an infrared light emitter, an infrared light photoreceptor (622), and a microprism (413). The sensor may be configured to detect an object in proximity to the sensor using electromagnetic waves and voltage measurements. The sensor may include a microcontroller configured to read the voltage measurements associated with infrared electromagnetic waves, compare the voltage measurements to a threshold voltage, and determine the functional condition of the sensor based on the comparison.
