Donkey Car Python Library Powers Self Driving Raspberry Pi Cars

A Raspberry Pi robot car

If you’re ready to race, you should check out Donkey Car. This open-source Python library makes it super easy to get off the ground with setting up your own driveable car project. Because it’s Python-focused, you can use it with a wide variety of boards ranging from Raspberry Pi to even the Nvidia Jetson range of boards.

This platform makes it easy to not only to drive cars remotely but also integrate them with AI systems so they can drive themselves. You can interface with it using a separate computer or device (like a smartphone or tablet) and make the RC car as complex as you want. Long gone are the days of building your own tool from scratch, Donkey Car has plenty of ready-to-go features out of the box that you can build off of to customize your project the way you want.
