In This Project I Want To Make RC Car can be controlled only by your hand gestures :-)
The idea in a nutshell is to make a connection between the RC Car and the hand movements by RF, Wi-Fi, even Bluetooth.
And an IMU Sensor to translate the moves to orders for the RC Car.
Car controlled by hand gestures
Construction Parts
The enclosure of the RC car will be designed as 2.5D for the external body parts using Fusion 360 and fabricated using Laser Cutting and 3D Printed some hand controller also using Fusion 360 and fabricated using a 3D Printer. (or just gloves and zip ties :D)
Input (Sensing and/or User)
The signals from the hand to the RC car.
Action
Move the car according to the way the hand moves.
Brain
Arduino UNO, Arduino Nano.
Power Management
9V Battery Will do the job rather than a power supply because the mobility of the RC Car.
Minimum Features: are the least amount of features that would demonstrate the coverage of all the technical modules and their complete integration
Complete Features: are the set of features that will complete your original project objective and vision
Nice-to-have Features: are the extra set of features that will make the project cooler, yet they need extra time, effort, and/or resources to finish
