I built a web-controlled robot from scratch — and instead of
hot-gluing a bunch of dev boards together, I designed a custom
all-in-one PCBA to keep things clean and repeatable.

The robot streams live video to a browser-based controller,
reads battery voltage, monitors CPU temperature, and drives
two motors with a virtual joystick. All controlled over WiFi
from any device with a browser — no app required.

And because the Pi Zero 2W sits at the heart of it, there's
nothing stopping someone from plugging an AI model into this
thing and letting it drive itself.
