Help me to identify this Sensor

[eleboy]

Hi, I got a sensor but unable to identify what it is exactly. The words etched on it is "TK1 649 TFM 5380". This is in black color with 3 pins. Googling is not much helpful. Please tell me if you have any idea.

Update:
Heres a photo that I found online: https://sblive.narod.ru/RCforPC/IR-TFM5380.jpg Sounds like an ordinary IR sensor?
