I Built This Autonomous Robot to Detect and Avoid Obstacles. The Code is Included.

This is a simple autonomous robot able to detect and avoid obstacles. I use a cheap 4WD robot platform (You can use any of these platforms), an Arduino UNO($18.59 on Amazon), and a cheap HC-SR04 sensor (2 pieces at $2.83 on Amazon). The robot is programmed to drive forward till an obstacle is detected. Then …
