Today, we are introducing a fascinating programmable smart car that allows children to easily learn programming while gaining practical knowledge in electronics, mechanics, control logic, and computer science. This robot is based on the open-source ARDUINO platform, with very simple assembly and wiring. All components are connected with screws and copper columns, and it only takes a few simple steps to complete the assembly. It offers 15 programming course projects, ranging from simple to complex, guiding users step by step in learning how to "teach" the robot to understand commands.
