Perfect classroom tool
We use these in our STEM lab for introductory electronics classes. They are durable enough for handling by students and provide consistent readings.

Easy to integrate
Plugged right into our controller without any issues. The documentation was clear enough for us to get started quickly.

Great for kids learning coding
My son used this with his robotics kit to make a night light project. It was very easy to connect and the sensitivity is adjustable. Highly recommend for STEM learning.

Reliable sensor
Consistent readings in different light conditions. I used it for a line-following robot modification and it performed flawlessly.

Good sensitivity
Works well for most projects. The only reason for 4 stars is that I wish the cable was a bit longer for larger builds, but otherwise solid.
