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 TECHNICAL DETAILS Channels: 5x infrared reflectance sensors Output Type: Digital (per channel) Operating Voltage: 3.3V–5V Detection Distance: 0–4cm Interface: Multi-pin header (jumper wire harness included) SHIPPING LIST 1x Line Tracking Sensor 5 Channel 1x Female Jumper Wires 4x Screws 2x Spacers 1x Screwdriver
