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. We will build a model car and use Raspberry Pi to navigate through certain trails.
