Imagine piloting a rover on the desolate terrain of Mars, exploring alien landscapes and confronting the unknown. Sounds like a dream for NASA engineers, right?
Not anymore.
Welcome to GalaxyRVR, a Mars Rover kit from SunFounder, bringing interplanetary exploration into your living room.
Built on NASA’s rocker-bogie system, GalaxyRVR can traverse rocky mountains, sandy beaches, and grassy fields with smooth mobility, making Mars feel like home.
Equipped with a high-definition camera, GalaxyRVR provides a first-person view for an immersive piloting experience. Its advanced obstacle avoidance and ultrasonic modules ensure it can dodge obstacles autonomously.
Choose your path based on your interests and skill level:
Quick Start: Get started right away by controlling the GalaxyRVR with the RoboPilot App, or quickly run example codes in Arduino IDE and Mammoth Coding — ideal for beginners who want fast, hands-on control.
Programming with Arduino IDE: Delve deeper into the code, understand each function, and customize the GalaxyRVR with Arduino programming. Ideal for those seeking in-depth knowledge and experimentation.
Programming with Scratch: Use Scratch to program the GalaxyRVR. A visual and block-based language perfect for beginners and those new to coding.
