7) Create a WiFi configuration file wpa_supplicant.conf under /boot and add the following

B. Car Power Supply
Now you can unplug the TF card from the PC and insert it into the Raspberry Pi. For power
supply of the smart car, please note:
1) Supply the Raspberry Pi independently with a 5V/2A power – the software installation
and calibration needs a long time and the battery won't be able to support.
2) Also keep the power on by battery – the servos and motors are powered by the battery,
so ensure the power is on for them when the RPi is supplied separately.
Plug in the USB Wi-Fi adapter (skip this if you use a Raspberry Pi 3 with built-in WiFi device) and
complete the setting in the way you're comfortable with.
After the blinking indicator LED on the RPi turns into steady light on, you can check the IP
address for the router. Now log into the RPi.
C. Log into Raspberry Pi
When using the Raspberry Pi, most of the time we do not connect it to piles of peripherals like
keyboard and mouse; instead, we'd like to use the Raspberry Pi remotely in the PC with better
functions and configurations for programing and development. In this way you won't need
to prepare several displays and mice. You can use the serial port, ssh and rdp or VNC as long
as you have already known the address of the Raspberry Pi.
