Project Overview
Nowadays, as the fast development of technology, artificial intelligence becomes highly valued and popular. High-tech company such as Tesla has developed self-driving technology; Google has invented its instant translation machine; Apple has Siris, etc. With all the excitement and hype of A.I, our group decided to study and explore the Raspberry Pi Car. The goal of this project is to build a model car and use Raspberry Pi to navigate through certain trails. We will try some easy trails first. For example, our preliminary goal is that the car can navigate a path clearly marked on a white floor with black tape. If previous goal is accomplished well, then we will attempt something harder. We can either increase the complexity of road or add more functions into the car.
