This optical sensor features five (5) IR LEDs with corresponding phototransistors that measure the amount of infrared light reflected from a surface. Light colors reflect light whereas dark colors absorb light. Each of the eight channels can be read directly by the digital I/O lines of your robot's microcontroller brain.
Features
5-ch ITR20001/T infrared detector, high sensitivity, anti-jamming, stable performance
High precision analog output, combined with PID control algorithm, allows the robot tracks lines more stable
Premium build, works fine, but check ssd model support
Waveshare poe hat is premium to touch. Product works, haven't tested with a poe supply. However Check your ssd model if its supported by sending mail to waveshare support team. Some WD ssd is not supported. Rest Crucial I tried it works fine.
Ssd list (updating, but not completed)

Definitely product is cheap in price compared to other products. But most valued for price. It's worth it.
Btw in pics below the blue wd ssd it was not supported.
Delivery was fast. Booked in pre-sale item and packaging was neat secure. Gpio pins wrapped with foam product was wrapped multi layer with foam.
