2-Channel IR Reflective Sensor

Set made up of two TCRT5000 reflective sensors and a small control board based on the LM393 chip. When one of the sensors comes close to a light-coloured object, the strength of the received signal rises and the LED on the control board turns red (digital output high)

Description

Set consisting of two TCRT5000 reflection sensors and a small management board based on the LM393 chip. When one of the sensors approaches a light-colored object, the intensity of the received signal increases and the LED on the management board turns red (digital output high). When a dark-colored object approaches, the intensity decreases and the LED turns off (digital output low). The management board has status LEDs (digital outputs and power), trimmers to adjust the detection distance, and digital outputs. Suitable for line detection, for example to help a robot follow a black line on a white background or vice versa.
