Components Required:

  1. Arduino Uno (or Nano)

  2. Ultrasonic Sensor (HC-SR04)

  3. L298N Motor Driver Module

  4. 2x DC Motors with Wheels

  5. Chassis (robot frame)

  6. Caster wheel (optional but recommended)

  7. Jumper wires

  8. Battery (e.g., 9V or 12V Li-ion pack)

  9. Breadboard (optional)
