Getting Started with the KS0559 4WD Bluetooth Robot Car

The KS0559 is a 4WD multi-purpose smart car kit for Arduino. It pairs a V4.0 controller board (ATmega328P with CP2102 USB) with a DRV8833 motor shield, four DC motors, an ultrasonic module, a line-tracking module, an 8x16 LED matrix board, and a Bluetooth module.

What you will learn

  • Motor control: driving forward, back, left, right, and stop
  • Obstacle avoidance with the ultrasonic module
  • Line following with the line-tracking module
  • Bluetooth remote control from a phone
  • LED expressions on the 8x16 matrix board

The official documentation includes 17 Arduino projects and 17 KidsBlock graphical programming projects, so you can start with blocks and move to code when you are ready.
