Under the Hood

  • AppCar uses a NodeMCU micro-controller, based on the ESP8266 chip.
  • The MCU is pre-pgrogrammed with an Arduino sketch so that it works out-the-box.
  • Advanced users can control every input and output, modifying the robot to carry out a great variety of tasks.
  • NodeMCU is a true IoT device, and AppCar can be controlled over WiFi from any location in the world.
  • AppCar makes use of aREST.io, a cross-platform API for Arduino, ESP8266, RaspberryPi and many other devices.

    We love using AppShed to inspire girls into tech.
    They reach their 'Aha' moment very quickly and are instantly hooked.

    Jim is Director of Technology at Windward School
    (Los Angeles).

    Anne Marie Imafidion Stemettes

    I have used a number of web-based development tools in the past for my app design class, however none of them have the level of accountability found in AppShed Academy! As a bonus, the interface strikes the right balance of power and ease of use, freeing the students to focus on the creative aspects of the course.

    Stuart Swann

    Stuart is a leading independent education advisor representing amongst others Lego, Apple and AppShed.

    Anne Marie Imafidion Stemettes
