The Hammerhead is a small RC car measuring about 1' x 8". It is controlled by a simple IR remote with very basic buttons. The car can stop, go forward, left, right, and backward, and with each direction the LED on the top of the car changes to a different color. In addition to all of this, there are three various horns that the car has, controlled by the "A", "B", and "C" buttons on the remote. The car is currently run by 3 9V batteries, two controlling the motors and one controlling the Arduino, LED, and Piezzo Buzzer.
We are all very proud of the finished car and it was great seeing all of our hard work turn into something so cool. In total, about 30 man hours were put into building this car, however many of those hours were spent troubleshooting problems that could have been avoided. We learned alot about coding and the design process from this project and it was a great learning experience.
Without further ado, the HAMMERHEAD!
