[Beginner] Self-Driving Mini Car: Programming Experience

A hands-on workshop where participants start from sample code for a self-driving mini car that only goes straight, and use Python to make it follow a course and avoid obstacles. The session covers feedback control from sensor input and safe-stop patterns using while loops with try / finally, giving a practical first look at robotics implementation. The second half is a tuning challenge: bundle parameters such as speed, distance, and angle, then iterate to hit the fastest lap. The class is capped at 5 seats, open to ages 15 and up, and free. It runs at TIB FAB on the 2nd floor of Tokyo Innovation Base in Marunouchi. Bring a laptop that can connect to Wi-Fi.
