It's Racing Time! Meet the JetRacer — AI Racing Robot Powered by Jetson Nano 2GB
Note: the Jetson Nano 2GB is optional.
Autonomous AI racing car
interactive webpage programming, high frame rate processing through torch2trt (PyTorch to TensorRT translator) optimizing, easy to achieve autonomous selft driving
suitable for high school AI teaching / intelligent racing
DonkeyCar open source project
deep learning self driving car
JetRacer 2GB AI Kit also supports DonkeyCar open source project. DonkeyCar utilizes deep learning neural network framework Keras/TensorFlow, together with computer vision library OpenCV, to achieve self driving.
Deep learning, autonomous driving
introduction
JetRacer expansion board highly integrated
rechargeable, battery voltage monitor, no messy wiring, simple assembly
SAFETY CAUTIONS
- Li-ion and Li-po batteries are quite unstable. They may cause fire, personal injury, or property damage, if they're not properly recharged or used.
- Do not reversely connect the polarities when recharging or discharging the battery. Do not use inferior charger/charging panel to recharge the battery.
- Do not mix use old batteries with new ones, avoid using batteries of different brands.
- When buying Lithium battery, should always make sure the battery specification is compatible with the expansion board. Choose batteries from formal manufacturer, and ensure the batteries will work stably and safely by aging test.
- Lithium batteries have limited cycle life, they will also deteriorate as time goes by. Should be replaced with new ones when the batteries reaching their max cycle life, or working over two years, whichever comes first.
- Should be placed carefully and properly, keep it away from inflammables and explosives articles, away from children, avoid any safety accident caused by careless storage.
