TCRT5000 IR Line Tracking and Obstacle Detection Module

The TCRT5000 tracking module uses an infrared reflection sensor to detect lines, obstacles, and reflective surfaces. It’s a versatile sensor widely used in robotics and automation projects, offering high accuracy and simple digital output ideal for microcontroller applications such as Arduino, AVR, and PIC.

Key Features

  • Uses high-quality TCRT5000 infrared reflection sensor.
  • Detects black and white lines or object presence within 1mm–25mm.
  • Provides a digital output signal (0 or 1) for easy integration.
  • Fixed bolt holes allow stable installation on robots or chassis.
  • Compact PCB design (3.5cm × 1cm) with lightweight build (4.5g).
  • Works with multiple platforms: Arduino, AVR, ARM, and PIC.
  • Operating voltage: 5V DC.

Working Principle

The TCRT5000 emits continuous infrared light. When an object or reflective surface is detected, the reflected infrared beam is captured by the receiver, producing a high-level output signal. If no object is detected or the reflection is weak, the output remains low.

Wiring

  • VCC: Connect to 5V power supply.
  • GND: Connect to ground.
  • OUT: Digital signal output (0 = no detection, 1 = detection).

Applications

  • Line tracking for Arduino robot cars
  • Obstacle detection systems
  • Speed detection for rotating objects or meters
  • Fax machine or paper detection mechanisms

Package Includes:
1 × TCRT5000 IR Infrared Tracking and Obstacle Avoidance Module
