Abstract

This paper has designed and implemented an electronic circuit and algorithm for interfacing an autonomous remote-controlled car (ARCC) with the computer. This interfacing prepares the conditions to study and analyse the controlled object and endow it with the ability to be smarter and intelligent when performing its duties. The ARCC will be guided through the commands issued by the computer. It is manually controlled by the operator directing the car to the destination. The interface circuit consists of an Arduino microcontroller, switch, and connections. The designed circuit's validation has been tested through simulation and practically on the real system. The simulation test was done under a C# software environment, while the practical test was done on the real car. The experiments describe the car's movement from the initial position to the destination position. These experiments showed that the average system response time is: (346.4 ms) when the ARCC moves front, (360.9 ms) when the ARCC moves back, (1393.23ms) when the ARCC turns left and (935.77ms) when the ARCC turns right. A graphical user interface (GUI) has been designed and implemented to facilitate controlling activities related to ARCC. The GUI is a control panel used to set the parameters of the ARCC environment to prepare it to receive commands.
