Racingben Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) So I bought this setup on kickstarter and it will be on general sale in 2015. These clever little cars can run in normal RC mode or 'driver assist' mode. In The latter mode the cars use light sensors to detect the shade of the track. The closer you get to the edge, the more the car steers to try and stay on! I've tested this system at my last few events and it's brilliant. The cars do a great job and can even be used like a scalextric car. The controllers can organise races, give lap times and you can even set the cars to drive themselves!http://youtu.be/vSY8FXTe0tM Edited December 21, 2014 by Racingben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carpmart Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Where can we buy this? What sort of money is it for track, car and controllers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carpmart Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 BTW, these cars don't have Artificial Intelligence, that is something very different to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oodboo Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Is it just me or does this read like an advert? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderwolf Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 RC cars that steer themselfs around a track....surely that makes them a S-SC car instead? (Semi-Self Controlled Car) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evssv Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Is it me or does the track look fake in the vid??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racingben Posted December 21, 2014 Author Share Posted December 21, 2014 Track is real. It's not an advert. I don't have anything to do with wow labs other than being a paying customer Think of it as a halfway house between scalextric and RC. So far I've had kids as young as 3 years old driving the cars around. They just get frustrated with my RC cars so this is a great alternative.
