Zumi is an educational self-driving and AI kit that teaches both technologies in a more engaging way. You use machine learning techniques to teach Zumi how to navigate through a miniature map. With each session she learns more and gets better. There are many different things you can do, as well, like programming “her” to find the most optimal route, or to avoid pedestrians and objects.

Zumi can also be trained to follow hand gestures, recognize faces, and much more.

In general, the kit will teach you the basics of robotics. Other concepts include machine learning, self-driving vehicle systems, mapping and navigation, and more. You’ll be working directly with Python too, a popular programming language.
