Reliable for competitions
We used this on three different cars. Consistent performance on various tracks.
Description
This 8-channel line-following module enables precise path tracking for robot cars using infrared sensor technology. It features a one-touch automatic calibration system that eliminates the need for manual adjustment, making it suitable for robotics competitions. The board supports both 8-channel and 4-channel tracking modes to accommodate different course requirements. Ensure the infrared sensors are kept clean and free from obstructions for optimal detection performance.

Good value
Works well with STM32. Had to solder headers myself but expected at this price.

Saved me hours of tuning
The automatic calibration is a game changer. No more potentiometers to tweak.
5 FAQ
Q: Can it detect white lines on black background?
A: It is optimized for black lines on white background. White line detection requires logic inversion.
Q: Does it come with connecting wires?
A: No, the module comes without cables. Standard Dupont wires are recommended.
Q: What is the current consumption?
A: Typical current draw is around 20mA with all LEDs active.
Q: Is this compatible with Raspberry Pi?
A: Yes, it works with Raspberry Pi GPIO using 3.3V logic levels.
Q: How do I switch to 4-channel mode?
A: You can simply use the first 4 pins. The firmware handles the rest.
