Research-Self-Propelled Cart

This invention could be considered the world's first car, of course, as it requires no driver, it could also be considered the world's first robotic vehicle. Pretty advanced stuff!!
There were some slight teething problems with this pioneering creation. Unfortunately it was only capable of right-hand turns.
However routes could be "programmed" by inserting blocks into the gearing mechanism. Almost like a built-in sat-nav!
