Arduino Robotics Foundations is a practical, beginner-friendly journey into robotics where you learn by building real things, starting with small circuits and ending with an autonomous rover that senses its environment, makes decisions, and moves with purpose. By the end, learners understand what they built and have a strong portfolio to show....

Core (must-have)

  • Arduino Uno/Nano + IDE

  • Breadboard, wires, resistors, LEDs, buttons

  • Laptop + USB cable

  • Multimeter (recommended)

Robotics hardware

  • 2WD/4WD chassis + motors

  • Motor driver (TB6612FNG or L298N)

  • Servo (SG90 / MG996R)

  • Sensors: ultrasonic, IR, IMU, encoders (optional)

  • Toolkit: screwdriver, glue, zip ties, soldering iron

Project Outcome

By the end, learners will have:

  • 3–6 working robots (obstacle avoider, line follower, wireless rover, capstone)

  • A reusable robotics codebase (motor driver, sensors, PID, state machine, telemetry)

  • Practical skills (safe wiring, calibration, noise control, clean embedded coding)
