Supported by eLab Peers with huge amount of codes, libraries and resources that provided online, this smart car is a very well designed platform which allows different accessories to be added - From the first "Hello World" project by blinking a LED to much more sophisticated robot project by controlling a series of servos and modules with your Einsboard! The design involves mechanical structure, electronic-based sensor principle, automatic control, and even knowledge of Arduino programming. We hope users can greatly improve their knowledge of electronics, robotics, controls, mechanical, and even soldering technique through hands-on practice.

A**.
A good and affordable package to start learning robotics.
The package includes every basic thing you might need to build an Arduino based robot. I like the packaging and I disagree with someone who indicated that the manual is not good. On the contrary, the manual and the supplied code examples are excellent with detailed instructions. The manual also includes several projects.If you consider the price, I believe it's a good deal from elabpeers. I needed an affordable robot for my students to use in their final year project. I'm a professional who teaches both A.I. and Robotics at university level. I hold a PhD in A.I.I would have given this 5 stars but there are few imperfections. The first is that the screws used to attached the 2 motor modules (M3 x30mm) to the chassis are too short and it's impossible to attach the opts-coupler speed sensors in this case (page 69-70 of the manual). The same problem exists with some other types of screws. I had to replace those with screws from another kit.The second issue is related to the electrical connectors of the two motors. They are too thin and very flimsy. When you solder the connections you need to be extra careful not to break them.
