The Pololu QTRX-MD-13RC Reflectance Sensor Array: 13-Channel, 8mm Pitch, RC Output, Low Current is an advanced sensor array designed for precise detection of reflectance changes, such as those encountered in line detection applications. It comprises 13 IR LED/phototransistor pairs, each spaced at an 8 mm pitch, allowing for detailed and accurate readings. The array operates efficiently within a voltage range of 2.9 V to 5 V, featuring dimmable brightness control that functions independently of the supply voltage. This control extends to separate management of the odd and even emitters, enhancing the versatility of the device.
The sensor array is equipped with high-performance, low-current QTRX sensors that include lenses, optimizing their ability to detect high-reflectance objects up to approximately 40 mm away. The closer the object, the more pronounced the contrast between light and dark readings, facilitating precise detection. The output is formatted as digital I/O-compatible signals, which can be read in parallel as timed high pulses, ensuring seamless integration with various systems.
Note: Ensure proper handling to avoid damage to the sensors or circuitry.
If you are not satisfied for whatever reason with a Product you bought on the Site, it is possible to return it for refund within 30 days from the date you received it unless otherwise indicated in the Product listing.

The Product must then be returned in its original packaging (in perfect condition for resale) with its receipt and your (‘’RA’’) number. Reimbursement will be denied for any Products which do not conform to the above mentioned conditions.
Build-it-yourself Robot Parts are not refundable once assembled. Robots & Kits requiring assembly or soldering are also not refundable once assembled, soldered or modified in any way. All sales of robotic software and apps are final and cannot be refunded or exchanged. Returns are not accepted on special orders and clearance items except when they are found defective, in which case the Product may be repaired or replaced at the Vendor’s discretion. 20% Restocking fees may apply if you are returning a large quantity of the same Product that was ordered specifically for you from the manufacturer.
Please note that all items will be reimbursed within 7 to 14 days of receiving the Product (shipping fees excluded). You must also cover the cost of returning the Product. Shipping fees will only be refunded if the return is a result of a shipping error on our part. Cleaning fees of USD 100 may also be charged if a domestic robot is returned and has not been properly cleaned.
