ADVANCED WIRELESS VEHICLE USING INFRARED REMOTE TECHNOLOGY

Abstract

The Wireless Remote-Controlled Vehicle is planned to be controlled with the help of an infrared (IR) remote and infrared receiver module which offers an effective and cost-effective robotic means of control. This system is composed of the Arduino Uno microcontroller that receives an IR signal sent by a conventional IR remote. When sent these signals, the encoded messages are decoded through the Arduino and cause the L298N motor driver module to turn on and off the speed and direction of the vehicle DC motors. The car is made up of two motors and wheels on a bare chassis to ensure easy forward, retrogression, left, and right movement. The IR control technique provides a reliable and short wireless communication over the distance and without interference. In this project, the practical use of embedded systems, wireless communication and control over motor movement in robotics is realized. It is user friendly and can be extended to more sensors to obtain further automation and avoidance of obstacles.
