ShakerRacer - control cars by N95 accelerometer

In racing games to play RC cars, one needs game controller or keyboard..........na you actually need N95 :)

Yes! using ShakerRacer application, one can control RC cars

How does it work:

The car used is based on a standard €90 RC car bought from a toy shop. We modded it to accept Bluetooth instead of the proprietary wireless module that it was shipped with. A small microcontroller and a Bluetooth module replace the original wireless components. On the side of the mobile phone, a Python script translates the input of the acceleration sensor to commands that the microcontroller can understand in order to manage the steering servo as well as the main motor.
