The circuit in question is designed to control multiple DC motors and servos using an ESP32 microcontroller. The ESP32 is programmed to handle motor control through a web server interface, allowing for remote operation. The circuit includes motor drivers to manage the power requirements of the DC motors, ultrasonic sensors for distance measurement, and a step-down power converter to regulate the voltage for the servos and sensors. The system is powered by 12V batteries, and a voltage converter is used to step down the voltage to 5V where necessary.

This code sets up the ESP32 to control the motors and servos via a web server. It defines the pin connections, initializes the components, and provides a basic web interface for controlling the vehicle's movement. The stopMotors
function is used to stop all motors, and the setup
function configures the Wi-Fi connection and server routes. The loop
function is left empty, as the server handles the asynchronous requests.
