MiniQ Discovery Robot Kit for Arduino

The MiniQ Discovery Robot Kit for Arduino is a compact two-wheel drive mobile platform powered by an integrated Romeo V2 controller. Equipped with an onboard Sharp GP2Y0A21 IR distance sensor, it provides an accessible entry point into programmable robotics. It is ideally suited to students, educators, and hobbyists tackling STEM robotics projects.

Two-wheel drive mobile base

The kit features a compact 2WD layout designed for agile navigation and mobile robotics experimentation. Its small footprint makes it easy to deploy on standard desks and classroom tables.

Romeo V2 integrated controller

Powered by a Romeo V2 controller board, the platform combines core processing with motor driving capabilities. This integrated setup keeps wiring tidy and simplifies project assembly.

Sharp infrared distance sensing

The included Sharp GP2Y0A21 IR distance sensor provides precise object detection and distance measurement. It enables autonomous behaviours such as obstacle avoidance and proximity detection.

Arduino-compatible STEM platform

Full compatibility with the Arduino ecosystem allows users to program the robot using familiar libraries and tools. It serves as a practical, hands-on tool for teaching coding and robotics fundamentals.
