An open-source hardware and firmware project for a tiny PCB-based RC car built around the ESP32-H2, including KiCad schematics, gerbers, 3D-printable mechanical parts, and Python scripts. It bundles motor-control firmware, a keyboard driving controller, and neural network training scripts for autonomous color-based line following.

Use cases

• build your own tiny open-source RC car
• flash custom firmware onto an ESP32-H2 motor controller
• train a neural network to drive a line-following robot
• drive a robot car from a keyboard over serial
• learn PCB design with complete KiCad files and gerbers
• 3D print an enclosure and wheels for a micro robot
• hack a ChatGPT/LLM-driven physical robot

When to choose

• you want a complete open-source hardware + firmware + software robot car project
• you are learning embedded development on ESP32 with real hardware
• you want to experiment with ML-based line following on a physical robot
• you need reference KiCad designs for a small motor-control PCB

When to avoid

• you need a production-ready or polished consumer RC car
• you want a simulator-only project without buying or fabricating hardware
• you need a supported product with warranty or documentation-grade code quality
• you require platforms other than ESP32-H2
