This is the 14CORE Design Line Following robot which is capable of detecting lines and follow it. This robot uses TCRT5000 Sensor which is capable of emitting dark color lines. The TCRT5000 are reflective sensors which include an infrared emitter and photo-transistor in a leaded package which blocks visible light. For more details about the sensor please refer to the product datasheet below. If your new to H-BRIDGE / Motor controller just follow also this link L293D / L298N.
