Maker Line: Simplifying Line Sensor
Good idea for a line follower having what amounts to an automatic calibrator built in, very easy to use, switch on side changes from white line following to black line following. Was supplied with mounting standoffs so was fitted, up and running in a few minutes. Several examples of code found on the internet to get going with and I'll add my own shortly.

Maker Line: Simplifying Line Sensor
Very easy to handle and perfect for detecting the line. best Sensor I found until yet to do this job. You can find a short video attached. Also, the calibration can be done via software / GPIO so you do not need to push the calibration button. I can recommend this sensor for DIY robotic Projects.

Maker Line: Simplifying Line Sensor
This line sensor is great. It is nice and responsive and has good docs on calibration.
I’ve got action shots and a tutorial at https://orionrobots.co.uk/2023/08/05/raspberry-pi-pico-line-follower.html.

Maker Line: Simplifying Line Sensor
This is a very useful line sensor for all kind of robots and is especially good for a general purpose robot. It can work over multiple types of surfaces and lines and only needs a quick calibration via the provided button (can apparently even be done via a control pins itself, but I haven't tried that).
It is a very well thought out system overall that covers most of the problems that I've faced with other like following sensors.
The only potential downside to keep in mind, is that you can't change the positions as compared to separate individual sensors. So choose based on what your project needs.
