Donkey Car S1

The self-driving car built to learn AI

Are you looking for a tool to learn more about AI and machine learning? Donkey Car S1 is a pre-assembled, ready-to-use self driving car. It is one of the most popular self-driving projects used by academics, technology companies and research institutions. It is made for you to learn AI through a hands-on and engaging experience. Start learning, along with the comprehensive education package we offer!

Affordable solution to learn AI and self-driving car
Understand and explore how machine learning algorithms work through experiments
Train an AI agent to autopilot an RC car within a short period of time
Powered by a Raspberry Pi, a camera and open source software
By using a PCB called Donkey HAT, no longer have to use jumper wires and worry about connecting the wrong pin
Comes with a 0.91 inch OLED display, which can display Donkey Car information such as IP address and other vehicle information

Important Note 1: You need a power bank to power-up the raspberry pi. Because of courier restrictions we cannot provide it with the car. There is enough space for you to put the power bank of various shapes on the base plate.

Important Note 2: This product is shipping from Hong Kong. You'll get a quote of the shipping cost during checkout. The shipping cost does not include any customs duty or tax from your country. You are responsible for any customs duty or tax incurred from your country.

Features

Data collection

Use the built-in camera to collect thousands of images as the training dataset

Model Training

Create a ML model that mimics your driving style

Autopilot

Let the ML model takes the wheel. Further improve the models by experimenting different ML techniques

What can you learn?

Fundamentals of Machine Learning

Supervised learning
Experiment data collection, training and test autopilot in 30 minutes

Reinforcement learning
Use a simulator and train a reinforcement learning agent, just like Google DeepMind trained Alpha Go

Python Programming

Learn Python programming by building additional capabilities on Donkey Car. Starting from simple tasks such as adding a simple line detector, lap timer to advanced functions like avoiding obstacles and detecting traffic signs.

Advanced Capabilities

Explore advanced capabilities developed by the community such as stop sign recognition, voice recognition and more

Social Impact

The emergence of artificial intelligence and self-driving car poses different impacts on society.

Ethics: Accidents will be programmed into designated death in an inevitable situation
Legal problem: Who is responsible when the car violates traffic rules?
Social impact: Discussion on Universal Basic Salary, unemployment, transformation from car ownership to transport-as-a-service
