5-CH IR Line Sensor Array
PictoBlox Block

Quarky Intellio initialize 5CH IR Line Follower

Description

This block initialises the sensor array using the selected Mini Expansion Board or Expansion Board connected to Quarky Intellio.

The dropdown provides two options:

Board Description
Mini Expansion Uses the Mini Expansion Board’s I2C and motor-control interfaces.
Expansion Uses the Expansion Board’s I2C and motor-control interfaces.

The block reuses the selected expansion board’s existing I2C interface and motor driver for sensor communication and robot movement.

Python Function – Quarky Intellio (Mini Expansion):

lf5ir = LineFollower5IR(

    i2c=mini.i2c,

    motor_driver=mini

)

Python Function – Quarky Intellio (Expansion Board):

lf5ir = LineFollower5IR(

    i2c=intellioexpansion.i2c,

    motor_driver=intellioexpansion

)

These Python examples assume that the selected expansion-board object has already been initialised.

Note: Always select the board that matches your physical connection before using other blocks from the extension.
