Well, not really; the end result is a line following robot, but the actual project is about a simple, cheap robot chassis to be used in schools, clubs, and other educational, STEAM education events.

Inside the BeatBot an Arduino reads 9 infrared sensors for line detection at 100 samples a second. A digital servo controls the Ackerman steering mechanism to follow the line on the track or floor.

John Boxall, author of the new book Arduino Workshop, shares a few of the projects from his book on how to get started with the microcontroller. (Click the links to see PDFs of the complete ...

Learning to build a robot arm will teach you how to breadboard a circuit, how to program your Arduino, and how to work with moving parts. In the end, you’ll have a real, physical thing that does ...

An Arduino-based robot for people who don’t know how to build robots "Sparki" ideal for teaching kids (or adults) how to program robots.

Perhaps the most charming is Ozobot, a tiny robot that follow lines drawn on screens or paper — it's a simple concept that's surprisingly fun.
