Start straight away with the MXcarkit!
MXcarkit
The basic version of the MXcarkit is the ideal first step into the world of autonomous driving research. Alternatively, you can opt for a Jetson NX with more computing power. For an additional charge, there are several optional updates, such as a lidar, vehicle illumination and ultrasonic sensors.
