Product Description
TurboPi is a smart vision robot car powered by Raspberry Pi. It is built on a Mecanum-wheel chassis, adopts high-performance pan-tilt servos, HD camera and 4-ch line follower, and can be programmed in Python. With its impressive capabilities, TurboPi unlocks diverse AI applications.
1) 360° Omnidirectional Movement
With 4 omnidirectional mecanum wheels, TurboPi can move 360°. Different movement modes (move forward, horizontally, diagonally and rotate ) and excellent perform-ance make it bold to challenge various complicated routes.
2) 2DOF Pan-tilt for 360° View
Equipped with two anti-blocking servos, pan-tilt can rotate 130°vertically and 180° horizontally, which contributes to 360° camera field of view.
1. AI Vision Recognition Target Tracking
TurboPi uses OpenCV as image processing library to identify target items and complete Al games such as face tracking, color tracking, QR code recognition, gesture recognition, object recognition and line following.
1) First Person View HD Transmitted Image
TurboPi supports LAN and WIFi direct connection modes. After WIFi connection, the first person view will be transmited to APP interface, which brings you more exciting and real robot control experience!
2) Color Recognition and Tracking
Working with OpenCV, TurboPi can track specific color. After you select the color on the APP, it emits light of corresponding color and moves with the object of that color.
3) Target Tracking, Different Tracking Modes
TurboPi tracks the target wihin its view with OpenCV. lt supports two tracking modes. You can make pan-tilt or pan-tilt together with car body move with the target.
4) Face Detection and Tracking
TurboPi can track human face within its field of view, and move with it.
5) Gesture Recognition, Man-robot Interaction
TurboPi cooperates with OpenCV to count fingers. Then interact with you based on the number of finger, such as honk horn, twist and change color of light.
6) QR Code Control
TurboPi can recognize and read QR code to perform related actions.
2. It combines 4-channel line follower and camera to achieve autonomous driving. Line follower is responsible for line following function, and camera is used to recognize traffic light and road signs.
1) Autonomous Driving
2) Traffic Light Recognition
3) Road Side Recognition
4) Following with 4-channel Line Follower
TurboPi uses 4 infrared probes on 4-channel line follower to detect and follow line.
5) Vision Line Following
To achieve line following, it extracts ROI area with OpenCV first. Then remove noise to locate the line on binary image. Lastly, use PID algorithm to perform direction calibration.
3. Obstacle Avoidance
TurboPi includes a glowy ultrasonic sensor that not only detects and avoids obstacles but also dynamically alters its own light.
4. Hardware Features
1) Hard Aluminium Alloy Chassis
It protects the core control board from shattering and shocking and can bear bigger load!
2）High Performance Pan Tilt Servo
2DOF pan tilt is equipped with micro anti-blocking servo which has higher accuracy and longer service life.
3) HD Wide Angle Camera
Loaded with HD wide-angle camera, TurboPi can look around 180°, and up and down 180°. Combined with mecanum chassis car, its visual range is up to 360°.
4) 4-channel Line Follower
4-channel line follower with IIC interface enables TurboPi to detect black line without occupying Raspberry Pi CPU.
5) Powered by Raspberry Pi
TurboPi is powered by Raspberry Pi 5 or 4B controller allowing you to embark on motion control, machine vision, and OpenCV projects.
6) Easy to build
TurboPi is easy to build with instruction. You can enjoy the fun of building by build a robot.
7) APP Control
WonderPi APP supports Android and iOS. Switch game modes easily and quickly to experience various AI games.
8) Unlimited Creativity
TurboPi can be expanded with various electronic modules and LEGO blocks to open up diverse interesting robot games.
