Robust build
Used it for a robotics competition and it held up well under stress. Reliable detection even at higher speeds.

Okay product
The hardware is fine, but the manual was confusing for a beginner. Had to look up tutorials online to get it working.

Good sensitivity
The sensor detects lines well, but needs some tweaking out of the box. Once calibrated, it performs consistently.

Great for Arduino Projects
Works perfectly with my Uno board. The sensitivity adjustment is very responsive and easy to tune for different surfaces.
Q: Can it detect black lines on a white surface?
A: Yes, this infrared sensor is optimized for detecting black lines on a white background commonly used in line following.
Q: Is this compatible with Raspberry Pi?
A: Yes, this module works with Raspberry Pi provided you connect it to the 3.3V or 5V GPIO pins appropriately.
Q: What is the maximum voltage input?
A: The recommended operating voltage is up to 5V DC. Exceeding this may damage the comparator chip.
Q: What does the potentiometer do?
A: The blue potentiometer adjusts the sensitivity threshold of the comparator, allowing you to fine-tune detection distance.
Q: Does this come with jumper wires?
A: No, jumper wires are sold separately. You will need male-to-female or male-to-male wires depending on your setup.
