This kit is very well made with all components neatly and safely packaged.
The included PDF files for assembly, construction and programming are very well written and illustrated.
There are multiple provided Arduino programs to highlight the use of one or any of the included sensors provided with the kit. the construction was simple and fun with no required soldering. The kit includes a custom UNO shield which is used to aggregate all of the wiring for the sensors and motor control signals, very slick and easy to follow.
In our own rush to get the project together on time, we choose to utilize one of the ready-made programs which makes the car drive along and track a black line of electrical tape on the floor. This worked great and was a major hit at the non-competitive science fair. However the kit also provides detail which allows the hobbyist to continue their exploration and customize the programs which serve as a starter for endless fun and learning.
I am an Electronic Engineer and Computer Scientist who has studied Electronics , Computer Science and Robotics for nearly 30 years. I am also a hobbyist who enjoys toying with Arduino / Pi and other electronic hobbyist items. This kit is great for a beginner to learn the basics of robotics and electronic / mechanical engineering and computer science.
