More and more makerspaces around the world are looking to add coding and electronics to their maker education programs. One of the best ways to do this is by integrating an Arduino board into makerspace projects and lessons. We’ve found that a lot of maker educators haven’t taken the plunge into coding or Arduino because they think programming is scary. Because of this, we wanted to make sure this tutorial was written for the absolute beginner with no experience whatsoever. This tutorial is a high level view of all the parts and pieces of the Arduino ecosystem. In future posts, we will take you step by step in creating your first simple Arduino project.

Line Follower robot is a machine that follows a line, either a black line on white surface or vice-versa. Nowadays, every robot is done with the help of the microcontroller, and hence the circuit is too big and tough to understand and makes it costly. For these reasons, in this project we have developed an intelligent Line follower robot with a simple concept with simple circuitry. Basically, there are two types of line follower robots: one is black line follower which follows black line and second is white line follower which follows white line. Here we have designed the first one. Line follower actually senses the line and run over it.
