4 Wheel Kit

Features of a 4-Wheel Kit

1. Chassis:

   • Often made of durable materials like acrylic, aluminum, or plastic.
   • Pre-drilled holes for mounting motors, wheels, and other components.
   • Space for adding a control board, sensors, and batteries.

2. Motors:

   • DC or geared motors (commonly 12V) for driving the wheels.
   • Mounting brackets to fix motors to the chassis.

3. Wheels:

   • 4 wheels, sometimes rubberized for better traction.
   • Some kits include omni-directional or mecanum wheels for advanced movement.

4. Power Supply:

   • Battery holders for powering motors and electronics (AA batteries or Li-ion).

5. Control Board:

   • Options like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or custom motor driver boards.
   • Includes motor driver modules like L298N or L293D for controlling motor direction and speed.

6. Sensors:

   • Optional in some kits; commonly include line-following sensors, ultrasonic sensors, or IR sensors.
   • Enables features like obstacle avoidance or navigation.

7. Miscellaneous:

   • Wires, screws, nuts, and tools for assembly.
   • Sometimes includes Bluetooth/Wi-Fi modules for remote control.
