[Hindi / Urdu] Arduino Project Obstacle Avoiding Robot

This Tutorial is for anyone getting started with arduino. We will be building an obstacle avoiding robot that uses an ultrasonic HC SR-04 sensor to detect objects.

Hardware Required

* Arduino Board
* Adafruit Motor Shield
* HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Module Distance Sensor for Arduino
* Tower Pro SG90 RC Mini Servo Motor
* Bracket / Holder for HC-SR04
* DC Motors and Wheels
* Bovine Wheel
* Plate or something like that
* Wires
* Battery Buckle 9V
* Battery 9V
* Glue Gun or Cable Ties
