Teardown: Inside the
Anki Overdrive racecar set

March 22, 2017 By Lee Teschler 17 Comments

car on track

Robotic race cars make clever use of software and infrared optics to follow lines slyly hidden on the track. Leland Teschler, Executive Editor The Overdrive starter kit we analyzed contains sections of track that can go together in various ways and can even include jumps. An interesting feature of the track is that its sections […]
