Recently, many parts of vehicles are controlled by electrical circuits and computer technology Some vehicles utilize cameras and sensors in order to offer information around it to the drivers. In the present study, we develop a system which controls RC car autonomously based on information from camera and sensors that recognize nearby dangerous situations. To realize such a system, we performed a preliminary study using a small car model called "mini yonku", which has only one DC motor. We could control the speed and the direction (backward/forward) of this small car using orientation sensors of a smartphone, which sends commands to the model car via Bluetooth. Based on this preliminary study, we will control the RC car based on the information from camera and sensors to avoid obstacles around it.
