What does QTI stand for?
Q = Charge
T = Transfer
I = Infrared
When your microcontroller measures the time it takes for the QTI's capacitor to decay, it's measuring a rate of charge transfer through an infrared phototransistor. This rate indicates how much infrared is reflecting off a nearby surface.
