Silver Arrows
A 1:10 scale Formula 1 car with high-torque DC motors, voice-controlled over Arduino and Bluetooth.
Overview
A realtime 1:10 scale Formula 1 car, powered by genuinely powerful DC motors on a 3.5-inch wheelbase, driven by voice rather than a controller. Design inspiration came from the Mercedes W12.
Two Formula 1 projects in the same year was not an accident.
What I built
-
Voice control over Bluetooth
Responds to a specific set of voice commands, relayed to the car through Arduino and a Bluetooth module.
-
Physical build
Built around high-torque DC motors on a 3.5-inch wheelbase, with the chassis and livery modeled on the Mercedes W12.
