Single-Channel Infrared Line Sensor

This module provides one infrared tracing channel for detecting black-white line contrasts on a surface. It is intended for hobbyists, students and developers building small autonomous vehicles or robots that follow a marked path. The sensor outputs a simple signal when the infrared beam encounters a change in reflectivity.

Upgrade From Basic Photoresistor

Replacing a simple light-dependent resistor with this module gives a more consistent digital response to defined lines rather than ambient light levels. The improvement is worthwhile when a project needs reliable edge detection on a known track and the builder can integrate a single-channel input into their microcontroller code.

Questions about this item

What voltage does the single-channel tracing module require to operate?

The module operates on a standard 5 V DC supply, compatible with typical microcontroller logic levels.

How is the module connected to a microcontroller for line detection?

Connect the module's VCC to 5 V, GND to ground, and the OUT pin to a digital input; the sensor pulls the signal low when the infrared detector sees a black line.
