The High Power H-Bridge Motor Shield for Arduino is equipped with built-in current sensing utilizing the ACS712, and is capable of driving any DC motor up to 15Amp.

This shield could be a good alternative to hobby RC controllers for robots that need a customizable open-source motor controller. The PCB design and source code are available on GitHub.

The Arduino has been used for many purposes, and “shields” are available to make many common tasks easier. However, [Nick] wanted a stackable motor driver shield, so he build one himself!.
