KY033 Line Tracker (Follower) Module

KY033 Line Tracker (Follower) Module The TCRT5000 Single Channel Line Tracking Sensor Module is a great detector for a line-following robot. Potentiometer to adjust the sensitivity of the individual sensors. TCRT5000 infrared sensor emits an infrared emitting diode continuously when no infrared rays are emitted or reflected is reflected but the strength is not large enough, the phototransistor has been in the off state, and the output terminal of the module is high, indicating that the diode has been in the off state; in the object to be detected within the detection range, and the intensity of the reflected infrared rays is large enough, phototransistor saturated, and the output terminal of the module is low, the indicator LED is lit. TCRT5000 Single Channel Line Tracking Sensor Module is a carrier board for the TCRT5000 reflective optical sensor. Although it is designed for use with line-following robots, it can be used in mini-sumo robots for line control. The board has a digital output. Features: Infrared reflective sensing technology. Digital output interface. Adjustable sensitivity control. Fast response detection. Compact PCB module design. Easy microcontroller interfacing. Suitable for line-following robots. Stable and reliable performance. Low power consumption. Built-in indicator LED. Easy installation and integration. Compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi.

KY033 is a fairly accurate line tracker that is designed for line following 4 wheels and two wheels moving robotics . It consists two parts: an IR emitting LED and an IR sensitive phototransistor. It can output digital signal to a microcontroller or Arduino so the robot can follow a black line on a white background. The accuracy and detection distance can be adjusted using the onboard poteniometer. Feature Small size. 3: 5 VDC . Indicator LED. Digital output. Distance: adjustable using potentiometer Ky033 line tracker user manual and Arduino code
