Master Autonomous Navigation: Pi 5 OpenCV Lane Detection Car Kit with Raspberry Pi 5 & Camera

Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.

You’ll build a 2WD robot that uses computer vision to detect road lanes and autonomously steer, mimicking the core technology behind modern self-driving cars. This project is a showstopper for engineering final-year submissions, hackathons like Smart India Hackathon, or a deep dive into embedded AI. By the end, you’ll have a fully functional lane-following car that processes live video from the Pi Camera Module 3, runs OpenCV on the Raspberry Pi 5 to identify lane markings, and sends precise steering corrections to an Arduino Nano over UART.

What You'll Build

A complete autonomous vehicle that navigates test tracks in real time. The car uses edge detection and perspective transform to locate lane lines, computes steering angles, and transmits differential motor commands to the Arduino motor driver. You’ll see immediate results as the car smoothly follows a taped course, exactly like a scaled-down prototype for smart mobility projects.

What You'll Learn

• Real-time lane detection using OpenCV on Raspberry Pi 5 with Python
• UART serial communication between Pi and Arduino for low-latency robotic control
• Interfacing the L298N motor driver and implementing PWM-based speed and direction control
• Debugging and deploying an embedded computer vision pipeline on a mobile platform
