Description
Build and program your first robot buggy using a Raspberry Pi, learning how to connect motors, add sensors and write algorithms.
Learn robotics by building a robot buggy and controlling it with a Raspberry Pi
On this course from the Raspberry Pi Foundation, you’ll build a robot buggy controlled by a Raspberry Pi.
You’ll start by learning how to connect motors to your Raspberry Pi, and how to write a Python program to control them to move your buggy. You’ll move on to adding sensors to your robot and writing algorithms that use the inputs from these sensors, giving your robot the ability to follow lines and avoid obstacles.
You’ll examine the wider context of modern robotics, and think about how robotics affects society.
