The Story
Arduino Line Following Robot DIY Project with IR Sensors
The Line Following Robot DIY Project Kit is an educational and hands-on robotics kit designed to demonstrate automation, sensor integration, and basic control algorithms. Using IR (Infrared) sensors, the robot detects and follows a contrasting line path, such as a black line on a white surface.
This project is built around a pre-programmed Arduino microcontroller and is available in Acrylic Body and MDF Body options. It is widely used in schools, colleges, workshops, and STEM/STEAM learning environments to teach robotics fundamentals, motor control, and sensor-based navigation.
The kit offers an engaging learning experience while providing a solid foundation in Arduino programming and robotics system design.
