§ 02 — Description
An optical infrared module for detecting black/white lines and objects at short range.
Operating principle: an IR diode emits light, and a phototransistor detects the reflected signal. Light surfaces reflect IR beams (output LOW), while dark surfaces absorb them (output HIGH).
Sensitivity adjustment: a trimming potentiometer lets you precisely set the trigger threshold for different surfaces and lighting levels.
Simple integration: the digital signal is output directly to any GPIO pin of a microcontroller.
