The 3 Channel Path Tracing Module is a reflective infrared sensor module designed for line following, path detection, and edge sensing applications. Equipped with three independent IR emitter–receiver pairs, it can accurately detect black/white contrast and guide robots or automated vehicles along a predefined path. The module provides stable digital outputs and is ideal for robotics competitions, DIY robots, educational STEM projects, and automation systems requiring multi-point line tracking.
