If you've already installed the Raspbian system, please skip this step.
Search out the installation guide for Raspbian on the Raspberry Pi website at
https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/. Then download the Raspbian to your TF

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/sunfounder/Sunfounder_Smart_Video_Car_

you install a virtual machine of Linux for the convenience of development
on the Raspberry Pi.
