Maker 5 Channel Line Sensor

The Maker Line Sensor features a 5 x IR sensor array, capable of tracking lines with widths ranging from 13mm to 30mm. It offers selectable line colors (light or dark). The sensor calibration process is simplified, eliminating the need to adjust individual potentiometers. Simply press the calibrate button, sweep the sensor array across the line, and press the button again to save the calibration data. The sensor supports dual outputs: 5 x digital outputs for individual sensor states, and one analog output providing higher resolution for precise line position detection, ideal for applications requiring high accuracy like PID-controlled line following robots.
