Lady Buggy is a ladybug-inspired buggy designed for our grandkids aged 2 years to 2 years plus. A video showcasing Lady Buggy's capabilities can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZ3CjPFoovk&t=2s. As demonstrated in the video, Lady Buggy is a wifi-enabled remote control vehicle that features both slow movement and ease of control. Lady Buggy utilizes a touch-based iOS device locked in portrait mode (tested only with iOS devices; see Software section below) and requires dragging the red "button" around the display for forward, reverse, and turning movement; simple enough for our 2-year-old grandson to operate, with minimal adult supervision. The source code is included as an Arduino sketch for the Adafruit Feather Huzzah ESP8266, allowing you to modify it for use with different devices if needed. To assemble Lady Buggy, you will require soldering skills and equipment, wire, and all listed parts, plus an Arduino IDE with necessary libraries installed. As usual, I might have overlooked a file or two; please don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions, as I make mistakes frequently. Lady Buggy was designed using Autodesk Fusion 360, sliced using Cura 3.0.4, and printed in PLA on an Ultimaker 2+ Extended and an Ultimaker 3 Extended.
