" summary

Builds a small Mars-rover style robot using Android Things on an i.MX7 D board, a $28 Junior Runt chassis, a $22 motor HAT, ultrasonic rangefinder, camera, and 3D‑printed mounts (STLs on GitHub); uses TCP sockets and rxJava streams for bidirectional telemetry and commands, and an AR remote with ARCore and Sceneform that anchors models to image markers. Demo shows live video telemetry works, joystick control is flaky in the session, and the repo includes code, drivers and costed part list.
