Zumi seems to be working fine, except that every time I restart I need to connect to Zumi's own network in order to connect to the home WiFi.

Anyway to remember the credentials, maybe by editing wpa-supplicant? Or would that mess something up?

On the right side of Zumi there is small rectangular opening, that overlaps with the window. Just inside there is a vertical black cylindrical component. What is this?

Hey, great update!

Drive mode is there, and network connectivity is much improved.

I have a question about Blockly in Code Mode.

Shouldn't there be a framing block, that marks the start of an executable code segment? I can add blocks (eg move forward 5 seconds) and click the Run button, but nothing happens. In Scratch, MakeCode and similar there is usually an enclosing block that represents the main program loop. Shouldn't there be something like this here?

Haven’t had any news on updates or fixes for a while, and forum activity seems pretty minimal.

Is anything still happening with this project?

I can probably reverse engineer the libraries and figure out how to drive it as another RPi powered robot, but I thought a lot of the promise here was making it a nice easy on-ramp to AI.

going to http://zumi5117.local/step2 should also work

just going to http://zumi5117.local will take you to the WiFi selection page

The material is not velcro, it is 3M Dual Lock. Both sides are the same. It requires a little more pressure than Velcro to lock in place.

pip freeze lists a lot of packages! I hope the tutorials eventually make use of them!
