About Tracking Module/Tracker Sensor, Infrared Line

Overview This is Venel tracking sensor module. The priciple of tracking module is presented as follows: Tracker Sensor has five analog outputs, and the outputted data are affected by the distance and the color of the detected object. The detected object with higher infrared reflectance (in white) will make larger output value, and the one with lower infrared reflectance (in black) will make smaller output value. When the sensor is getting close to a black line, the output value will come to smaller and smaller. So it is easy to get the distance from the black line by checking the analog output (The closer distance between the sensor and the black line, the smaller output value you will get). Compare to any other module only with logical (HIGH/LOW) output, we can get more precise result from the analog output of this module. In the following section, we are going to present the algorithm in three parts.
