 +====== PiBot Lessons ======
  
 +This documentation provides training material for using the [[https://www.amazon.com/OSOYOO-Raspberry-Educational-Ultrasonic-Obstacle/dp/B08JLS3J7Q|OSOYOO Pie Robot Car]] to teach basic Linux, Python, and electronics skills. This robot uses a Raspberry Pi as the brains along with several interface boards to control the motors, provide feedback, and interface to sensors. A robot with the Raspberry Pi was chosen because it provides a well known platform that students can quickly get started with yet has plenty of power to grow with them as they progress.
 +
 +This documentation is broken into several lessons and challenges that progress from building the robot and performing basic maneuvers to fully autonomous operation using vision navigation.
