Product description: Line sensor :Move Line Follow - for line follower robots - Kitronik 56111
The :Move Line Follow line sensor is a proposal from the Kitronik company, which allows you to extend the functionality of the robot with the ability to drive along the line - the principle of Line Follower operation. The module was designed for :Move Motor - for BBC micro:bit , but it can also be successfully used with other boards, such as Arduino and Raspberry Pi Pico, it also supports other micro:bit projects. There are two phototransistor LED sensors on the board that output an analog signal that can be read by the ADC of the microprocessor. :Move Line Follow has been equipped with 4 male leads with a pitch of 2.54 mm.
