Robotics Path B — AI Motion Rescue Mission

Robotics Path B

AI Motion Rescue Mission

Control a Bluetooth-connected robot car through motion-based AI input using MRT 451 + AI Node Board + Scratch + Google Teachable Machine.

⭐⭐⭐ Advanced🦾 MRT 451 + AI Node🤖 Motion-Controlled Rescue

Mission Story 📖

The driver has been injured and can no longer drive the vehicle. Fortunately, communication is still available. The head office remotely connects to the car and guides it to complete an important rescue mission.
