An accessory pack for the ElecFreaks Ring:bit Car V2, adding obstacle avoidance, line-following, and colourful LED lighting to your micro:bit-powered car. The kit includes three modules that plug directly into the Ring:bit Car for expanded functionality.

What's Included

  • Sonar:bit (Ultrasonic Sensor) – 3-wire ultrasonic module with a 4–400 cm detection range (±1 cm tolerance), 3–5V operating voltage. Enables obstacle avoidance.
  • Tracking Module – Dual infrared probe line-following sensor with 2–12 mm detection distance. Follows black lines, detects edges, and tracks circular paths.
  • LED Light Bar – 8× Rainbow full-colour LEDs for auto-headlights, rainbow effects, and custom lighting.

Key Features

  • Plug-and-Play – Connects directly to the Ring:bit Car V2 via 3-wire GVS cables
  • micro:bit Programmable – Control all modules through MakeCode or Python
  • Three Functions in One Kit – Obstacle avoidance, line following, and LED lighting
Note: Requires the ElecFreaks Ring:bit Car V2 Kit (sold separately). micro:bit board not included.

Ideal For

  • Expanding Ring:bit Car V2 capabilities
  • Learning about sensors and robotics with micro:bit
  • Classroom STEM activities

Package Contents

  • 1× Sonar:bit Ultrasonic Module
  • 1× Dual IR Tracking Module
  • 1× Rainbow LED Light Bar

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

LED
A light-emitting diode (LED) is a small electronic component that emits light when current flows through it in the correct direction. Because it only conducts one way, its polarity matters, and a through-hole LED must be soldered the correct way around to light up.
Tolerance
Tolerance tells you how far the real resistance value may be from the printed value. A 1% resistor is useful when a circuit needs more predictable behaviour than a looser 5% or 10% part.
Ultrasonic module
An ultrasonic module measures distance by sending out high-frequency sound pulses and timing their echo. It is commonly used for obstacle detection and simple range-finding projects, but it needs a clear path to the target.
