I divided this project into two parts. In Part I, I take a cheap toy car apart then place the Arduino Uno + Motor Shield on the platform that contains 2 motors, one in the back for locomotion and the other in the front to turn car left and right by turning a pinion. For Part II, I add an IR sensor and program the Arduino to avoid obstacles. Since electronic parts are expensive in Jordan and are subject to arbitrary tariffs and in some cases confiscations, it might be necessary to scavenge parts from locally available products. In future videos, I will add more sensors and enhance the robot's intelligence. I am also considering rewiring the robot as a differential steering robot since the bulk of entry level robots seem based on it. This should give me access to tons of sample code as well as make my code of use to more designers.
