DESCRIPTION
This module is ideally suited to white/black line detection, typically seen in line following robots. Sensitivity adjustment and a reduced susceptibility to interference makes this module an ideal candidate for any line robot.
Working at a low 3.3 - 5V input the module will output LOW on detecting a white object and HIGH while not detecting. An onboard potentiometer allows for the detectors sensitivity to be varied. This provides a means of adjusting the module to be more sensitive to particular materials and over different distances.
IR (Infrared) is in a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that is invisible to the naked eye. As such testing this module can be troublesome. A nice little trick to help; take a digital camera or smartphone camera and point the camera at the LED while it is lit. You will find most digital cameras show a gentle purple glow from the LED when it is lit.
