Getting Started with the Smartcar Platform almost 2 years ago
Getting Started with the Smartcar Platform about 2 years ago
Nice job. I did a project similar to this using a 4wd platform similar to the one in the project. I just used Adafruit's motor shield to drive the motors. I added HC-05 Bluetooth to communicate to it if I wanted remote control. Then use AppInventor to create an app on my phone to control it. Now they have apps that are already made to do that. My next step was going to make it voice controlled. But I'm on to other projects. Keep up the work.

This is the Adafruit motor control shield.

That one is discontinued but they have a replacement:

Adafruit has all the libraries, examples, etc. It was a build on that and the HC-05 Bluetooth, which there are libraries for it too.
Beyond that, if I have time I might do a separate write-up about it. But this one goes on the same type of logic really.
