TCRT5000 Dual Channel Line Tracking Sensor Module (Infrared Line Follower Sensor)

The TCRT5000 Dual Channel Line Tracking Sensor Module is an infrared reflective sensor module designed for line following, edge detection, and object sensing applications. It uses two TCRT5000 infrared sensors to detect differences in surface reflectivity by measuring reflected infrared light. The dual-channel design enables simultaneous left and right line detection, making it ideal for line-following robots, smart car platforms, and automation projects. The module provides digital outputs and features adjustable sensitivity for easy integration with Arduino, ESP32, STM32, Raspberry Pi, and other microcontroller platforms.
