Product Description

Raspberry Pi

  • The PiCar-V is an open source robot learning kit based on Raspberry Pi. Equipped with a wide-angle USB webcam, it is powerful together with three whole new circuit boards and less but simpler wiring. (Compatible with RPi 4B/3B/3B+, Raspberry Pi is NOT included)
  • Some constructure plates in a well-designed structure, solid, durable and shatterproof. Complete code suitable for almost all platforms to control the car.
  • Python code is provided for the car, and you can also program and debug it with Dragit, a Snap-based graphical interface, by just simple dragging and dropping the code blocks for complex functions.
  • There are many ways to control the robot remotely: with the app on PC (works on any OS), you can control the car and the cam's direction on the UI and view the image it takes in real time; or, with the related code, realize the same functions on a web browser, means it can works with any mobile phones, tablets, etc.

Real-time Video Transmission

Equipped with the Wide Angle 120° USB camera, which provides a wide and clear vision, you can view image and video taken in a web browser on your device in real-time.The 2-axis pan-and-tilt servos enable the camera to film in a range of a hemisphere,for you to easily control the angle of filming video and image, the image transmission is in high efficiency, which makes image transmit in real-time.

Blockly and Python Program

Python code is provided for the car, and you can also program and debug it with Dragit. A visual programming language software is provided for easy coding. Even if you don't have programming basis, by means of easy code blocks complex functions can also be realized.

DIY Your Robot Car

Examples given to expand your knowledge.

In addition to using the keyboard to control the status of the car, we also wrote a ball tracking code.After the code runs, find a red ball (at least larger than the diameter of the camera) and put it within 10-50cm range in front of the camera to get the car to follow your ball.

    7 customers mention0 positive7 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the servo quality of the toy vehicle set. They mention that it has an underpowered steering servomechanic and wobbling flange.

    "...within the first hr of trying the dragIt programming, the servo motor starts tripping (making clicking sounds and not able to turn)...." Read more

    6 customers mention0 positive6 negative

    Customers are dissatisfied with the performance of the toy vehicle set. They mention that the software is not functional, obsolete, and not reliable.

    "...However, it is not an easy project and the software needs to be updated...." Read more

    "...SunFounder car repo doesnt directly support the Pi4 yet - the PWM driver will abort, and after fixing it to run, it wasn't 100% happy - which is how..." Read more

    "...I think my battery holder might be defective because I no longer receive power through it...." Read more

    "...Best time we could get is 8 min. operation before system crashes due to lack of power. PI4 requires a second power supply not provided. Not much fun...." Read more

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 12, 2020
    First thought, wow this sounds amazing. Oh, no instructions included. Okay, found an instructional Pdf so printed the 80 page instructions. Finally sit down and they are the wrong ones but didn't realise until the top peices looked different, it says picar-S all over the instructions and looked the part so.... I go back online and download an app called ManualsLib and turns out everything I had done so far is wrong. Start again. It better work after all this! I will update when or if done. Oh and all the parts are covered in paper so that was FUN!

    Update: with the instructions on the app we successfully built the car and it is ace.
