Hi!
I require your guidance for my first robot.
I want to start with a simple robot with Arduino that will roam around while avoiding obstacles, but I don’t know
which Arduino board I should use.
Also, if you could give me some tips on what others components I will need would be very much appreciated.
Thank you so much in advance for your help!
@Sim_metry If you prefer not to worry about the steps to get all parts correctly spec’d and working together, you might consider an Arduino-programmable rover. https://www.robotshop.com/en/robot-kits.html
For example:
To this, you’d add a distance sensor, distance sensor mount, IO shield and (strongly suggested) rechargeable 3.7V LiPo.
If you angle the one sensor at around 45 degrees, you can detect walls and dropoffs.

There are many other accessories available given that it’s Arduino-based, for example if you want to get into APP design, you only need a Bluetooth module:
Thank you, I’ll look into it.
