The control systems have been built into the interior of the car, and the whole system rigged for Wi-Fi communication to allow you to control it using your iPhone. Throttle and brakes are touch-screen controlled, and steering is via gyroscopic control. Simply hold the iPhone in front of you and pretend it’s a steering wheel.
You rotate the iPhone clockwise to turn right, the opposite to turn left. Throttle and brakes are touch-screen controlled, so pretend your right thumb is the gas pedal, and your left thumb operates the brakes.
If there is what you call drive-by-wire, I’d say this can be called “drive-by-wireless”. Hahaha! This makes not only remote driving possible, but car surfing as well!
For the detailed plans, parts lists, and codes, check out the Waterloo Labs website.
