Line tracking module, 3.3V / 5V (TCRT5000) HW-871 5-channel infrared

HW-871 5-channel infrared line tracking module, 3.3/5V with integrated TCRT5000

The TCRT5000 infrared photoelectric sensor is often used for line tracking in robotics projects. The infrared emitter diode of the TCRT5000 sensor continuously emits infrared rays. If the emitted infrared beams are reflected by objects, they are received by the infrared receiver and emit digital signals. The position of the tracking line can be determined from the five digital signals emitted.
