Course Workflow

Welcome to the MicroROS ESP32 WiFi controlled robot course! If you're passionate about robotics and eager to dive into hands-on hardware and ROS2 projects, this course is perfect for you. We'll guide you step-by-step in building a fully functional robot using the ESP32 and MicroROS with ROS2.

Course Overview

Section 1: Building the Robot

• Assemble your robot from the ground up

• Utilize 3D-printed parts and resources we provide

• Learn about electronic connections and power distribution

Section 2: Basic Programming

• Get started with programming using PlatformIO to control your robot's movements

• Write simple code to drive the robot and navigate basic paths

• Create your custom libraries for motor driving

• Integrate the OLED display into your robot

Section 3: MicroROS Integration

• Integrate MicroROS with your ESP32 robot

• Enhance your robot’s capabilities with advanced communication using ROS2

By the end of this course, you'll have a deeper understanding of robotics, from hardware assembly to software integration, and you'll walk away with a robot that you built and programmed yourself. Join us on this exciting journey into the world of robotics!
