Imagine driving a miniature kart not with a steering wheel, not with a little Nintendo controller, but with the natural movement of your hand. Our project creates a glove-based motion controller that senses your hand’s tilt and rotation and wirelessly translates those gestures into smooth and precise control of a small vehicle. Unlike most motion controllers designed for video games, our system brings motion control into the real world, offering an experience that is both intuitive and immersive.
To achieve this, we will be developing custom PCBs, hardware, and embedded firmware. The glove collects motion data through gyroscopic sensors, transmits it via Bluetooth, and the kart responds in real time with motor movements.
Mario Kar combines haptics and robotics to deliver a new kind of controller that feels natural, responsive, and fun!
