Summary

In this chapter, you built a race car with a steering wheel and navigated various race tracks using the coding blocks that you learned about in the previous chapters. You also enhanced your building skills by attaching the color sensor to the front of the robot on your own to solve this chapter's challenge. You can now apply advanced coding concepts to build and code completely autonomous cars, as well as other robotics applications with sensors mounted on them. With this, we have come to the end of our exciting journey of learning how to build and code using the LEGO BOOST kit.

In the next chapter, you will be solving a challenge without any guidance provided on how to build and code the robot. This will help you figure out what level your learning is at regarding this kit and will help you learn more if you're stuck on something. It is highly recommended that you go through this and the previous chapters before you move on to the next chapter. All the best!
