I have built a DFRobot Arduino Mobile Platform using an Arduino Uno Rev3, a Arduino Motor Shield, and a kit from Robonor:

The project is built, but I need help with the programming. I will add images to the post that shows how I have built it. I used a tutorial on YouTube to build it:
The code is supposed to start the motors, so it will drive forward, reverse and turn.
Could somebody help me?
You should probably start by looking for a library that will help you control motors through the Arduino Motor Shield. Often you can find the library at the same place you bought the Motor Shield.

This is a good place to start, BUT I do not see any sensors. After installing the shield libray your robot will be powered up but with no place to go! The usual primary sensors are:
-bump sensors
-Ultrasound
-IR object detect
and many more.
Start with sensors for which plenty of Arduino code has been published.
