Description

It uses the Raspberry Pi as control board. We provide some basic lessons in the kit to show you how to set up Rasbian Linux environment, how to use Linux shell to control car movement and how to use web browser to monitor and control car movement through the camera. These basic projects in our tutorial have step by step instruction , circuit graph and installation video. These lessons all have been tested, so if you strictly follow our instruction, they will work without any problem. We also write detailed comments in our python sample code which can help you to understand the code and customize for your own application. However, you must have some linux and python background knowledge otherwise please do not change the code. Equipped with unique Mecanum wheels, this robot car achieves 360-degree omni-directional motion, including forward, backward, sideways, diagonal, and in-place rotation, offering unparalleled control and flexibility to navigate complex environments with ease. With dual molex plug on Model Pi driver module and customized wires, it can greatly simplify the assembly procedure and wire connection stability. An elaborately-written user manual,video,python code with explanation and schematic diagrams are provided. We provide a webcam-equipped robot car that streams live video to a web server. You can monitor and control the car remotely via a web browser or a dedicated Android/iOS app. The apps are available for free on the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. This robot car is equipped with two IR distance sensors and programmed to follow moving objects. The working principle relies on infrared distance detection: the car receives signals from the IR sensors, and the control program adjusts its movement accordingly. Ultrasonic Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Modules: These modules can accurately detect the distance to obstacles in front of the vehicle, enabling it to avoid or bypass them. The kit includes a 5-channel IR line tracking module with adjustable detection range (0-3cm). Preloaded Python libraries provide GPIO interface controls for sensor calibration, real-time feedback monitoring, and PID-based line following algorithms. Custom tracks can be constructed using the included 19mm wide black vinyl tape. The robot car features a user-friendly design for quick and hassle-free assembly. The Model Pi driver module comes with dual Molex plugs and customized wiring, ensuring simple installation and secure, stable connections. This kit features a Raspberry Pi-controlled robot car running on a Linux operating system. The Linux OS enables the car to perform tasks requiring significantly more complex logic than traditional Arduino-based robotic vehicles. You can remotely control the smart car both on a PC or mboile phone, making it convenient for control. Meanwhile, the Android app is available on Google Play and apple iOS app is available on app store.
