## Description

Beginner-friendly: The advanced ESP32 controller board control makes programming easy. Through 16-story-rich tutorials, students will systematically master the principles of programming and electronics. This kit allows for programming through three different methods, block based programming, Arduino and Micropython.

**Omni-directional Control:** the cart is designed with four-drive meccanum wheels, which can easily and freely rotate and cope with various scenarios without any pressure. Whether it's tracking the line or avoiding obstacles, this car can do it easily.

**Multi-way Cruise & Multi-direction Obstacle Avoidance:** Accurate multi-way cruise allows the cart to easily plan the path and realise autonomous navigation; multi-direction obstacle avoidance allows flexible response in the face of obstacles; the new follow mode allows the car to always follow your steps.

**IR remote control and App Control:** This allows children to control this car through the IR remote control and App, making you enjoy the fun and convenience of intelligent technology. Simply master all the actions of the car with just one touch.
