The Mini DFRobotShop Rover Kit (Arduino Uno) is a small, inexpensive tracked platform that provides you with the basic tools needed to experiment with Arduino based programming and mobile robots. This kit includes an Arduino Uno microcontroller module. The frame is made of durable laser cut Lexan parts, and the drive system consists of a Tamiya dual motor gearbox (must be assembled according to configuration A) and Tamiya track and wheel sets.

Arduino Uno

Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 microchip. It has 14 digital input/output pins (6 of which can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP connector, and a reset button. It contains everything necessary to support microcontrollers; Simply connect it to the computer using a 1.5-meter A-to-B-type USB cable, or power it with a wall adapter power supply -9VDC 650mA or DFRobot 7.4V Lipo 2200mAh battery (Arduino power jack) to start using it.

DFRobotShop Rover Shield is an ideal "all-in-one" shield suitable for small, Arduino based mobile robot development. This shield allows you to use a 3.7V LiPo battery (also included in the kit) to power your Arduino, and even comes with a 3.7V LiPo charger that allows you to charge the battery via USB. The onboard L298P H-bridge (dual brush DC motor controller) is highly suitable for controlling two small low-voltage gear motors and allows for complete control of speed and direction. Other features include a universal infrared receiver, XBee connector, and separate analog pins (for easy connection to sensors).
