TCRT5000 IR Reflective Sensor | Line Tracking & Object Detection Sensor

The TCRT5000 Infrared Reflective Sensor is a compact and reliable photoelectric sensor designed for object detection, line tracking, and position sensing applications. It works by emitting infrared light and detecting the reflected signal from nearby surfaces or objects.

When an object or surface is within the detection range, the reflected infrared light is received by the sensor, producing a digital output signal. This makes it highly useful for line-following robots, automation systems, and mechanical motion detection projects.

With its fast response and stable performance, the TCRT5000 is widely used in robotics, embedded systems, and DIY electronics, especially where accurate short-range detection is required.
