A line following car is a robot that is able to follow a line on the ground using sensors and an Arduino microcontroller. The Arduino is a small computer that can be programmed to control the motors of the car and make it move.

The code for the Arduino will use an algorithm to process the sensor data and determine the direction of the car. It will then use this information to control the motors of the car and make it move forward or turn left or right to stay on the line. Once the car is able to follow a line, you can use it to build a line following car that can follow the line and build the great wall. By using a line following algorithm, the car will be able to follow a pre-defined path and construct the wall by adding bricks or other building materials along the way. Overall, building a line following car using an Arduino is a great way to learn about robotics, computer programming and control systems. It also helps to learn about construction and automation
