Fitness Racer: PC Control of an RC Car

Posted by michael on from the dance-dance-speed-racer dept.

An anonymous reader writes "This project gives step-by-step instructions + source for connecting a cheap RC car to your parallel port and driving it around with a Dance Dance Revolution pad (or joystick). A fun way to make an old toy fun for another few hours, and another way to pretend that reading Slashdot may eventually lead to body movement."

    Give it WiFi and a webcam and I'm sure it would be even more fun. ;)
