Piko Bots - IR Following Pet DIY Project (No coding Needed)

The Pikobots IR PET is an exciting, hands-on DIY kit designed to introduce aspiring engineers, students, and hobbyists to the fascinating world of robotics, electronics, and programming. Assemble your very own mobile robot and watch it come to life!

💡 Key Features:

• Infrared (IR) Sensing: The "IR" in IR PET refers to its primary function. This robot is equipped with Infrared Proximity Sensors that allow it to detect objects, boundaries, or even follow a hand  It's a simple, autonomous "pet" that reacts to its environment.

• Complete Kit: Everything you need is included in one box: a sturdy, pre-cut chassis, DC gear motors and wheels, IR sensors, a motor driver module, and all necessary wires and hardware.

• Educational Value: This project is a perfect STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning tool. Users will learn about:

  • Mechanical Assembly: Constructing the chassis and mounting the motors and wheels.

  • Electronics Wiring: Connecting sensors and motors to the control board.

• Beginner-Friendly: Designed to be accessible for those new to electronics and coding, with clear instructions to guide you through the build process.
