In this chapter, you learned the basics of the ESP8266 microcontroller and the modules based on it. Then, you learned how to run AT commands on ESP8266 and used the Arduino core for ESP8266 to write sketches. Finally, you gained knowledge on various robot chassis kits and accessories that can be used to build robots.
Chapter 2, Building a Mini Round Robot with Original ESP8266, offers the fundamentals of robotic vehicles by building a mini round robot with ESP-01.
