DS4-RC-Car

required PyPS4Controller library

• pip install pyPS4Controller

How it Works

Raspberry pi pairs to ps4 controller and input is taken from controller and converted to serial data that is sent over serial port (wheel direction and speed) to an Arduino that controls the i2c bus on the motor drivers of the rc car.

Original RC car was the called: SEEED rover

• replaced intel edison with my own raspi and arduino k

Future:

• Teather raspi to hotspot
  • Add live video
  • Send data over internet for long range use

Note:

• i2c on grove motor driver has conflicts with the raspi. It only works the first time you turn it on and then just stops working.
