Product Description

The Navigational Robot – Car-2 (Communications) teaches students how modern robots receive commands and operate through wireless communication systems.

Delivered fully assembled with a UK-engineered motor controller board and integrated power routing, Car-2 provides a clean, reliable robotic platform with no external wiring challenges.

The standout feature of Car-2 is its advanced UK-engineered Remote Controller, supporting button-based input, joystick steering, accelerometer-based tilt control, and gesture interfaces.

Using NRF24L01 radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and IR remote control, students gain hands-on experience with the three most widely used wireless technologies in robotics and embedded systems.
