{"product_id":"infrared-line-tracking-sensor","title":"Infrared Line Tracking Sensor","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis line tracking sensor from Waveshare is a great option if you're building a line-following robot. The sensor has no less than FIVE infrared detection channels, allowing you to program your robot to stay within a line (and tell it what to do if you detect that the line has crossed the outer channels!).\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is a high-sensitivity line tracker with a high-precision analogue output and anti-jamming for stable line tracking performance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe sensor has five analogue outputs, and the output data is affected by the distance and the colour of the detected object. The detected object with higher infrared reflectance (white) will produce a larger output value, whilst lower infrared reflectance (black) will produce a smaller output value. When the sensor is getting close to a black line, the output value will come to smaller and smaller.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCompared to other modules which only offer a logical HIGH\/LOW output, we can get a more precise result for a much more controlled and stable robot.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eResources\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProduct Wiki including setup instructions and code examples\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDimensions (drawing)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBasic wiring for a microcontroller is as follows: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eVCC ↔ 3.3V ~ 5V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eGND ↔ GND\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIR1 ↔ MCU.IO (ch1, analogue output)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIR2 ↔ MCU.IO (ch2, analogue output)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIR3 ↔ MCU.IO (ch3, analogue output)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIR4 ↔ MCU.IO (ch4, analogue output)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIR5 ↔ MCU.IO (ch5, analogue output)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x Tracker Sensor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e1x XH2.54 7-pin wire\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePower: 3.3V ~ 5V\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDimension: 78mm × 18mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetector spacing: 16mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMounting holes size: 3mm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetection range: 1cm ~ 5cm\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Waveshare","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55919687827529,"sku":"qvr1787258148613","price":3.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0937\/7185\/7993\/files\/infrared-line-tracking-sensor_1.jpg?v=1787258153","url":"https:\/\/streetclad.shop\/products\/infrared-line-tracking-sensor","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
