🤖 Lesson 1: Unboxing and Review of the ELEGOO Smart Robot Car V3

Welcome to this first lesson in our hands-on series exploring the ELEGOO Smart Robot Car Kit V3.0. In this video tutorial, we begin with the unboxing and overview of the components included in the kit. This smart car is one of the most comprehensive Arduino-based robotic platforms, ideal for students, hobbyists, and engineers who want to dive deep into embedded robotics and sensor integration.

The video is a quick walkthrough of what you receive in the kit, explaining the role of each component and laying the groundwork for future lessons in this series, where we will assemble and program the car to perform various tasks like obstacle avoidance, Bluetooth control, and line following.

📦 What's in the Box?

Upon opening the kit, the following major components are revealed:

• Arduino UNO (clone) – the brain of the robot

• Robot Car Shield – sits on top of Arduino and simplifies motor and sensor wiring

• Ultrasonic Sensor with Servo Mount – for obstacle detection and directional scanning

• Line Tracking Sensors – allows the robot to follow a black line on a white surface

• Bluetooth Module – enables wireless control via smartphone

• Motor Driver Chip – controls the two DC motors for movement

• Chassis, Wheels, Caster, and Screws – the mechanical parts for building the car

• Remote Control and IR Receiver – optional IR remote-based control

• USB Cable and Battery Holder – for programming and mobile power supply

Each item is packed with great attention to detail, and the quality of the components is impressive for the price point. The video does a good job showing how all the parts are organized and what each part is used for.
