Line Tracking Sensor 5 Channel

DESCRIPTION

The Line Tracking Sensor 5 Channel is a 5-way infrared reflectance array built for line-following robots, giving makers and students five independent digital outputs to precisely detect a black line against a white surface. Compatible with Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi, it's a reliable upgrade from single-sensor line followers for STEM and robotics projects across Singapore classrooms and maker spaces.

Its five-sensor array reads line position and width simultaneously, enabling smoother, more accurate path-following algorithms than a 1- or 3-channel module.

FEATURES

• 5-channel infrared reflectance array for precise line detection
• Independent digital output per channel (HIGH on black, LOW on white)
• Wide operating voltage range for direct Arduino/microcontroller compatibility
• Compact PCB with mounting holes for easy chassis integration
• Includes brass standoffs and screws for secure mounting
• Colour-coded jumper wire harness for fast, error-free wiring
• Suitable for black-line-on-white and white-line-on-black tracking

APPLICATIONS

• Line-following robots and robotics competitions
• STEM education and robotics coursework
• Automated guided vehicles (AGV) prototypes
• Edge and boundary detection for mobile robots
• DIY smart car and chassis kits
