DIY iPhone Controlled RC Car

Combine the power of the Arduino with the iPhone and you’re bound to end up with an outstanding project. Learn how to control an RC car using the multitouch and tilt sensing features of the iPhone.

The data is basically sent from the iPhone → WiFi → PC → Max/Msp → Serial port → Arduino and then finally to the original RC remote, which in turn controls the vehicle. Definitely a fantastic weekend project!
