We have ignition! We’ve managed to connect our microcontroller to the HO slot car racetrack without triggering any catastrophic events. Watch in this video as we use a light sensor and microcontroller to alter the speed of the car. In this setup, the microcontroller is using an…Read more
Several parts arrived today including the Arduino microcontroller. This is the main component we will use to collect the sensor data from the track and relay to the N900. In addition to the Arduino, we received a variety of resistors and sensors:
Most of the sensors are in…
Walter from Pit Crew here to give everyone a quick update. OK, the tools, sensors, and various components are either being ordered or on their way. In the mean time, the track has been delivered (see below)
We are still going to use vintage slot cars but decided…
