A Smartphone-Controlled Wi-Fi Vehicle
Abstract
This project aims to design and build a compact,
programmable vehicle capable of autonomous
movement and remote control via wireless
communication. The core components include an
ESP32 development board, motor driver circuitry,
DC motors for propulsion, and optional sensors for
environmental feedback. Utilizing the capabilities
of the ESP32 microcontroller, the smart car
integrates seamlessly with IoT applications,
enabling real-time data exchange and remote
operation through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity.
The development process involves assembling the
chassis, integrating hardware components, and
programming control algorithms in the Arduino
IDE. Key functionalities such as obstacle
avoidance, line following, and wireless control are
implemented to enhance the car’s autonomy and
user interaction. This project serves as an
educational exploration into robotics, embedded
systems, and IoT, providing hands-on experience in
hardware assembly, software development, and
integration of sensor-based intelligence. By
fostering creativity and technical skills, the ESP32
based smart car project offers a practical
foundation for enthusiasts and learners alike to
delve into the evolving landscape of smart
technologies.
