This kit introduces quite a few electronic principles, its fun and not difficult to build. This is a self-build DIY smart tracking robot car kit. It is an introductory electronic kit designed to help kids, electronic enthusiasts, and novices learn about basic electronic knowledge like soldering and simple circuits(photoelectric sensor circuit, voltage comparator, motor driving,ir sensors etc.) The smart kit is designed based on the principle of infrared sensor and light reflectivity difference when the light emitting on the white and black items
The assembly steps:
Step 1: Welding circuit
Soldering part is simpler, welding sequence according to the principle of component level from low to high, the first welding eight resistance, is important to use multimeter to confirm resistance is correct, D4, D5 R13 R14 can temporarily not welding, integrated circuit chips can temporarily not inserted
Step 2: Mechanical assembly
The red line is connected to the 3V positive power supply, the yellow line grounding, excess wire an be used for motor wire.
Step 3: The installation of a photoelectric circuit
Photosensitive resistance and light-emitting diodes (note polarity) is reverse-mounted on the PCB, and the ground distance is about 5 mm, both photosensitive resistance and light-emitting diodes are 5 mm distance. Finally, you can power test.
Step 4: Vehicle debugging
The right direction is along the universal wheel direction, if you press and hold the left photoresistor, the wheels on the right side of the car should be rotated. Press and hold the right photoresistor, the wheels on the left side of the car should be rotated, if the car driving back, can also exchange the wiring of two motors, if the one side normal and the other side back up, as long as you can swap wiring of back side.
Note: We don't supply any manuals please note this before you buy it.

What's new in the Pro model?
1. Improved Mechanical Properties
The Ender 3 Pro has been redesigned with a more sturdy, 40×40 aluminum extrusion for the Y-axis base. This should improve the overall stability of the printing surface.
Also, better bearing wheels deliver more stiffness, reduce friction, give better dimensional stability – and also help to reduce the overall noise level.
2. Improved Extruder
According to their press release, Creality also exchanged their extruder to an “MK-10” version. The company boasts it should “greatly reduce the risk of clogging and uneven extrusion”.
3. New Magnetic Printing Surface
Last, but not least, the Ender 3 Pro now comes equipped with a “C-MAG” magnetic printing bed. The sheet is removable and flexible, so the prints can be plucked off the build plate more easily. According to Creality, their textured surface adheres to all types of filament better than traditional methods such as tape, glue, or hairspray.
4. Improved Power Supply
Power supply was replaced with better Meanwell power supply
5. Vent changes
The Vent on the controller move to the bottom of the enclosure to prevent dust and other particles from falling in

This is a versatile relay board kit that can easily be configured via jumpers and trimmer potentiometers to do a range of tasks.
Most sensor and switches can be connected to the input of the board and the trigger level set for the input device. This can be inverted if required, then there is the option to feed this straight to the relay or a timer of up to 25 minutes can be used. Irrespective of the state of the invert jumper whenever the sense LED goes from off to on the timer restarts.#
The board can run off any voltage from 4.5 to 6 volts.
The output cans switch DC or mains.
This datasheet details what the board does and how to use it along with some worked examples. A more detailed set of information including the build instructions & how to configure the kit can also be downloaded.
