## Required Hardware

* 1x Raspberry Pi
* 1x Camera Module for the Raspberry Pi
* 1x Arduino UNO
* 1x USB A-to-B (short)
* 1x Micro USB (short)
* 1x Motor Shield
* 1x Photo resistor
* 1x USB Power Bank
* 1x LiPo Battery
* 1x Chassis with DC Motors and wheels
* 1x Servo Motor
* 1x UltraSonic Range Finder
* 1x LED
* 2x 10k Resistor
* 7x wire
* Raspberry Pi with the Camera Module
* USB Power Bank: Choose carefully! It should provide a 5V 2A or at least 1.5A usb out to power up the Raspberry Pi.
The Raspberry Pi needs a lot of current for the camera module, wifi, and arduino is also powered by the Raspberry Pi
that's why choose a powerbank with at least 5000mAh! Ideally it has some status led so we can read the battery life with a photo resistor.
* Photo resistor + 10k Resistor: To read the battery life of your powerbank
* micro usb cable 0.6ft: To connect the powerbank with Rapsberry Pi
* usb A-to-B cable 0.6ft: To connect the Raspberry Pi with the Arduino
* Arduino Uno or Mega
* Motor Shield (for example: Adafruit: http://www.adafruit.com/products/81)
* LiPo Battery (for example: Hacker LiPo Akku 11.1 V / 1800 mAh (30 C))
* Chassis with DC Motors and wheels: just google "robot chassis 4wd"
* Servo Motor: for a 180° view
* UltraSonic Range Finder: to measure distance
* one LED: to use it as a status led
* some wire
