Each contains an IR emitter and a phototransistor. By measuring how much IR light bounces back from the floor, the module can instantly distinguish between a dark line (which absorbs IR) and a light-colored floor (which reflects IR).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it’s the Beginner’s Choice:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Simple \"Three-State\" Logic: Your robot only needs to know three things:\u003cbr\u003e1. Center sensor active: Drive straight.\u003cbr\u003e2. Left sensor active: Turn left.\u003cbr\u003e3. Right sensor active: Turn right.\u003cbr\u003e• Integrated Comparison: The module features an onboard Schmitt Trigger (comparator) circuit. This means you don't have to deal with messy analog values; the module sends a clean HIGH or LOW digital signal directly to your Arduino.\u003cbr\u003e• Low Pin Requirement: It only uses three digital pins on your microcontroller, leaving plenty of space for motor drivers, ultrasonic sensors, or Bluetooth modules.\u003cbr\u003e• Visual Feedback: Each of the three sensors has a dedicated LED on the back of the PCB. You can manually slide the robot over a line to verify it's working before you ever write a line of code.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Capabilities:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Operating Voltage: 3.3V to 5V (Works seamlessly with Arduino Uno, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi).\u003cbr\u003e• Signal Stability: The filtering architecture is designed to ignore standard indoor visible light, preventing your robot from \"getting confused\" by overhead lamps.\u003cbr\u003e• Detection Distance: Best results are achieved when the sensor is mounted 5mm to 15mm from the ground.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TinkEdge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46404562256071,"sku":"TE-IRSE-083","price":218.28,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6620\/6407\/files\/3-ChannelPathTracingIRSensorModule_1.png?v=1776767006","url":"https:\/\/shop.tinkedge.tech\/products\/3-channel-path-tracing-ir-sensor-module","provider":"TinkEdge","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
