The Robotic Rover is a widget of the Piper Make Robotics Kit, and an engaging way to start exploring how to design and build robots. The Rover is an add-on and REQUIRES a Piper Make Starter Kit with the Raspberry Pi Pico to get started (sold separately). 

Designed to inspire creativity and critical thinking about robotic design and inspiration, the Rover will get users thinking about how robots move in space and how to use sensors to detect space. Check out the build guide for the Rover.
