This paper proposes a remote control system for micro-vehicles with two-way laser communication technology. A pulsed laser tracking/control system and a laser communication system using a MEMS (Micro-Electric-Mechanical-Systems) mirror are integrated for constructing the two-way laser communication system. Utilization of the laser communication technology effectively achieves the miniaturization and lightening of the laser-driven micro-vehicles because laser has high directivity and it is possible to concentrate the power. In order to remotely control the vehicle, the vehicle position is transmitted to the base system from the vehicle by the laser communication system with MEMS mirror. At the same time, driving command for the vehicle is transmitted to the vehicle by the laser communication system with pulsed laser.
