Arduino Robot Car Kits
A robot car teaches the half of robotics an arm doesn't: driving motors, reading distance and line sensors, and reacting to the world in real time. The kits below are programmable, not remote-control toys, and several combine a small arm or camera with the chassis. They make a good second project after a robotic arm, or a first one for a younger builder who wants something that moves around the room.
