Driving little toys#
These little cars are fun to play with. Equipped with all sorts of sensors they are meant to drive as autonomous as possible and teach you how things work.
I do have fun with remote controlling already ;-)
Car platform is equipped with 4 motors and all sorts of sensors, camera and stepper motor to adjust viewing angle.
Raspberry Pi is used to control everything.
All motors have a Python app for steering waiting for commands via redis pubsub.
Camera is operated by the great camera-streamer app.
Steering events are generated using gamepad.
Python based joystick controller app is bridging events to steering commands.
