A hitch directing system is provided. The hitch directing system comprises a sensor bar having two or more LED lights and an optical sensor having a processor, a memory and electronic devices for operating the optical sensor. The optical sensor further comprises firmware stored in the memory to provide instructions to the processor of the optical sensor to operate the optical sensor and locate the position of the LED lights of the sensor bar with respect to the optical sensor. The system further comprises a computing device operating software, wherein the software interprets the location of the optical sensor with respect to the LEDs of the sensor bar, and provides a graphical representation of the location and the alignment of a hitch with respect to a tongue of a trailer.
