Wait a moment. You will hear that speaker will voice broadcast “IP address is 192.168.xxx.xxx.”
If you heard that speaker will voice broadcast IP address, which means that Raspblock has successfully connected the Wi-Fi network.
Then, you will hear that speaker will voice broadcast “Welcome to the Raspblock AI smart car”. It means that the APP remote control process in the system has started normally.
Before you connect the smart car with the application that they provide on Mobile Phone the Raspberry Pi of the smart car needs to connect with Wi-Fi first. But Raspberry Pi that uses for a smart car does not have a monitor, so you need to remote Raspberry Pi through computer. All the steps below are how I connect Raspberry Pi to the computer:
What we need:
LAN cable
Raspberry Pi 3
Program:
VNC viewer
Advanced IP scanner
Putty (use for remote into Raspberry Pi to enable SSH)
Step 1:
Connect Raspberry Pi with a computer through LAN cable
Go to Network and Sharing Center and do as the figure below:
Step 2
After you open it, put User: pi, Password: Yahboom and then do as this flow:
Then you just download VNC viewer and install. After installing it already you open it and fill the VNC Server with your Raspberry Pi’s IP and connect it
After that connect your Raspberry Pi with the Wi-Fi Install it into your smart car and open it, then wait a moment your smart car will speak: "The IP address is: 192.168.x.x." note the IP address and connect it to your smartphone through this IP address. Then you can remote your smart car.
After that, you can remote and play with all the functions that provide from the App of AI smart car like:
Remote all the servo motor of the 4 wheels and camera.
