Took my robot boat running a Python server that accepts commands over Bluetooth and WiFi for its maiden voyage. The robot chassis is from Kitronik and the brain is a Pico W from Raspberry Pi.

I put my Kitronik buggy robot in a plastic container and added tiny wooden paddles. Now I have a remote controlled boat. The code for piloting it is available in my repository: codeberg.org/thejessesmith/RobotSer…

My Kitronik robot is making art. Crude art, but considering the robot is just a few months old, I think being able to hold a pen and recognize shapes is a good start.
