Iphone controlled RC car

A project at Hials, where we are controlling a remote controlled car with and iPhone. We are using the Iphone application OSC remote that sends the accelerometer data to a pc, which transmits out a serial signal to an arduino microcontroller via MAX 5. The microcontroller then sends the signal to another microcontroller mounted on the car via trancievers.

Isn't that OSC just great?!!??

I bet it can be done without a PC. Just wifi router, or board on the RC car itself!

@billysgeo

yeah, it's probably very possible. We just wanted to keep it relatively simple this time around. To bad that car is utterly demolisehed now:)

As the info say, we have connected the iphone to the computer via WLAN, and processing the data on the computer, before sending it out to a microcontroller that sends a radiosignal to another microcontroller thats mounted on the car.

such slow response and so much hand movement lol not practical but great idea rcdrone controlled by iphone is very precise tho my son loves it.

IS THE CAR CONNECTED DIRCTLY TO THE IPHONE? or u are using a lap o someting?
