This paper proposes a pulsed laser tracking, control, and energy transmission system to realize remote control for micro-vehicles. Such systems have been attracting the attentions of engineers because of their smallness and energy saving potential. Remote control of vehicles is realized by sending the information for motor actuation using a pulsed laser. The same laser tracks the vehicle motion. A second, high-power laser transmits energy to a photoelectric conversion element attached to the vehicle. An optical device is proposed that integrates the two systems without interference. A prototype system was developed and its performance was confirmed experimentally.
