Build a self-driving robot using an Arduino. The coding and hardware are explained step-by-step, making it easy for anyone to follow along. You can make it even if you're beginner.

The goal of this book is to build a very basic autonomous robot using Arduino. It uses an Arduino Uno, two motors, an ultrasonic sensor, and a servo motor. The ultrasonic sensor measures distance and changes direction to move when it detects an object.

Arduino is an open-source, single-board microcontroller complete with a board and associated development tools and environment. The Arduino can be used to control sensors, motors, or LEDs, allowing you to create interactive products with multiple connected sensors or motors. It can be developed in C language and provides an IDE. You need to know the basics of the C language to develop with Arduino. The binary code converted to machine language code is downloaded from the computer to the Arduino via serial communication. Nowadays, PCs do not have serial and use USB to Serial, which means that they are connected to each other using a USB cable, but the internal communication uses serial communication. The classification of Arduino is based on the MCU (Micro Controller Unit) used in the product, and the UNO is the most common for beginners.

Arduino makes it very easy to create a working project if you know the C language. The C language is hard to explain in a page or two, but the Arduino code is not complicated, so you can type while reading the book, so it will make sense as you build the code. If you have any questions, you can Google it and learn it one by one. Since we are using only the most basic code of the C language, watching an hour or two of YouTube videos will also be very helpful.
