The Shield Bot is a stackable Arduino Shield that transforms your Arduino into a fully featured beginner robot. The Shield Bot has been designed and specially equipped with on board line following sensors and expansion ports to be the robotic buddy that will teach you about robotics, electronics, programming. It is also packed full of expansion ports so it can also be the perfect base for any desktop robotics project!
Features
Easy to start - The Shieldbot is plug and play and can be running out of the box in minutes
Expandable for imagination - solderless grove expansion ports enable easy attachment of more sensors and actuators, and shield headers allow the use of additional Arduino shields
Open source - Its designed to be hacked, adapted and transformed into whatever you want it to be!
Arduino Based - the Shieldbot is an Arduino shield, so the extensive Arduino community and shield ecosystem can be used for endless expansion!
Specifications
5x IR reflectance sensors for line and edge following
900 mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery
Two durable 160:1 micro metal gearmotors
6x Grove expansion ports
Stackable shield headers

On the Wiki page, there is a link to a video (on Youku.com), but this video isn't displaying properly. Is there a working demo video of this Bot somewhere? Thanks!
oh,yes,maybe some links can't be opened via foreign web.Thanks for your feedback，we will open more links.

OK, well, the problem was that the "Youku" link went to some random 36-minute video that was not related to the ShieldBot.
Where does the Arduino fit and what is it interface?
My Mega has Female socket. There are no pictures with an Arduino mounted.
Since the male pins are on the bottom of the robot, is that where the Arduino fits?
I would think there is no clearance for that?
I am still confused, since I could not find pictures with an Arduino?
From looking at the schematics, I can't figure out the interface. What is the unmarked U4 IC, is it a Atmel processor?
Hi, the U4 IC is L298 motor driver. Ours wiki page just show the shield bot, arduino can be added to the botton of the board, the picture didn't show it.

So, the Robot Shield has Female connectors?
Do you have to use male headers to connect to the Female connectors on the
Arduino? Upside Down?
The Shield Bot has long male+female headers. The male headers extend through to the bottom, so you plug in your Arduino on the bottom (see wiki for pictures). The female headers are for stacking additional shields on top.
