Python Robotics for Education
summary
A hands on classroom robot built from a $35 Raspberry Pi runs simple Python that exposes PWM motor control, RPi.GPIO pin reads, an ultrasonic obstacle sensor and three line sensors to implement line following and obstacle avoidance. The code maps clear functions — move forward, back, left, right — and runs over WiFi as a client/server remote control. Demos include working line following and basic avoidance, and the same platform scales up to image processing and ML.
