Self-Parking Car Kit
Autonomous Parallel Parking Car Kit: Master Sensor-Guided Steering with Arduino Uno
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
A two-wheeled robot that scans a parallel parking gap with three HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors, then steers itself neatly into the space - no remote control needed. The kit brings the real-world challenge of autonomous parking right to your workbench, giving you a hands-on grasp of how modern cars sense their environment and react with smooth, calculated motion.
What You'll Build
You construct a 2WD chassis equipped with side- and rear-facing ultrasonic eyes. As the car rolls forward, it measures gap length on the passenger side. When it detects a space large enough, it initiates a multistep reverse manoeuvre - the SG90 servo angles the front wheels proportionally, while the L298N driver precisely controls the TT motors. The result is a robot that parks itself against a mock curb every time, demonstrating sensor-based decision-making and closed-loop actuation.
What You'll Learn
- Calibrate and fuse readings from multiple HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensors for reliable gap detection
- Implement proportional control logic that translates distance error into smooth servo angles
- Drive TT gear motors with an L298N dual H-bridge, coordinating speed with steering angle
- Structure Arduino code as a state machine (idle, scan, park, done) for real-time robotics

Who This Kit Is For
Ideal for CBSE Class 11-12 students exploring sensor-based automation, B.Tech ECE/EEE final-year mini-projects, Smart India Hackathon teams prototyping autonomous vehicle modules, and ATL Tinkering Lab members ready to move beyond line-followers. If you're at IIT, NIT, VIT, or BITS and need a solid robotics demo, this kit delivers a complete, code-driven system you can re-program and extend.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project - accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Open the AI companion via the QR code, describe your issue, and it gives debug steps trained on this specific circuit and code. You can also reach us on WhatsApp for human help within 24 hours.
Does the kit include the Arduino code?
Yes. A fully commented sketch is provided, tuned for the exact sensor placements on this chassis. You can follow along with the AI companion's explanation and then modify the logic to experiment with different parking strategies.
Can I park on the driver's side instead?
Absolutely. All three HC-SR04 sensors can be repositioned, and the AI companion includes instructions to adapt the algorithm for left-side parking or even perpendicular parking with a few code changes.
Is this suitable for a school science exhibition?
Definitely. The self-parking action is visually intuitive and draws a crowd. The kit demonstrates physics (ultrasonics), mathematics (trigonometry in gap measurement), and programming, hitting CBSE and ICSE project requirements handsomely.
Parking - HC-SR04 sensors on sides and rear auto-park the car into a parallel gap with proportional servo steering.
