Week 4

We basically finished all the objectives of this car project, still working on to improve it.

Achievements

1. The car can realize functions like 'forward' and 'left'.
2. The codes improved.

Problem

1. The initial battery case was not suitable for the car because the voltage is too high, so we replaced it with another case.
2. The connection was not stable.

Picture of the car

Figure 1. The initial design of the car

In the picture the wires are messy which leads to the bad connection of the car. To solve that problem, a bread board was attached to gather the wires. Also, the Bluetooth mode is connected to the bread board.

Comments

The project is basically finished by week 4, but there exists some place for improvement. We finally gave up using Raspberry Pi 3, because there was a lot of problems. To improve the performance of the car, a new battery case is needed and some new functions should be attached.
