Raspberry Pi + Camera Board on RC Car using Wii Remote

1. Video demo
   Here is a first test run video of the RC car using Wii Remote.
   
   
   
   
   
2. Wii Remote setups
   I used wiiuse library to get the data from Wii Remote.
   http://sourceforge.net/projects/wiiuse/
   
   [TBD]
   
   
3. I-Racer setups
   I referred to the Sparkfun site for the documents, especially command sets.

4. System configuration
   
   
   
   
   
5. Start playing!
   Video settings
   Launch the command prompt and run the command below.
   RX (PC)

   [Path to nc.exe]\nc.exe -L -p 5001 | [Path to mplayer.exe]\mplayer.exe -fps 31 -cache 1024 -
   

   Log into the RPi and type the following command.
   TX (RPi)

   raspivid -t 999999 -o - | nc [insert the IP address of the client] 5001

   This will run the video streaming.
   
   Controller settings
   Connect the bluetooth devices, I-Racer and Wii Remote.
   

   
   Launch the controller program.

Hardware:
    Raspberry Pi
    Raspberry Pi Camera Board
    EW-7781Uh WiFi dongle
    PS Vita Portable Charger 
    Wii Remote Controller
   
Summary:
    This is the test run of our PC version RC car project using Wii Remote and Raspberry Pi camera board.
    It still requires the improvement and there is a bit of controller lag, but it was still fun playing with it :)
    Maybe it would be also nice to use Wii Wheel. I should try that when I have a chance.
