Sumobot and Arduino Introductory Robotic Kit

This instructable is a description of the build process of the custom robotic kits designed for and used by University College Dublin ElecSoc. These kits are designed as an introduction to robotics and the arduino ide. The kits use easily accessible parts and is designed to accommodate modification and hacking. Some sample code is available here (https://github.com/Chris-j-hill/sumo_test) and is designed to work with a variety of different hardware setups, which is aimed to abstract away the low level operations required to control individual pieces hardware and simplify the process of getting the kits up and running. The aim of these kits is to remove the complexity of dealing with a lot of different motor drivers and sensors while providing a flexible platform for interacting with this hardware with relative ease.”
