VR KART

Driving a real slot car from a VR cockpit. A telepresence toy, built to learn.

01 / BRIEF

A real slot car driven from a VR headset, as if you were sitting in it. Camera on the car, controls over the air, and latency as the real enemy. Nobody needs this to exist. That is precisely the point: it is a telepresence problem small enough to hold in one hand.

02 / NOTES

Milestone one: drive the car from a computer through an ESP32. Then the camera feed, then the headset. Every step is a physical system talking to a digital one, which is where all the interesting failures live.

03 / STATUS

On the bench. Milestone one in progress.
