Statement of the Problem
RC cars are usually hard to control if you are using one hand. This difficulty occurs because of its design and shape. I plan on making a hand glove that can control RC cars using just one hand with the movement of your fingers.
Purpose of the Study
Normal RC cars usually take two hands to navigate and drive the car using the remote. By developing this hand glove, the requirement for the control over the RC car would be reduced to just one hand rather than two. This hand glove reduce the energy and human effort required to get the car in motion.
Background/History
Although the first remote-controlled cars arrived on shelves in the mid-1960s, early engineers started adding motors to small plastic models in the 1950s. Even though small nitro methane fuel powered engines were available in the 1940s, and radio control technology was used in World War II, radio control was not truly commercially practicable until the arrival of the transistor. As transistors revolutionized electronics, smaller, more simpler and less power-intensive radio control systems appeared....
