Context

This personal experiment explores how a web interface, backend and microcontrollers can form a responsive control loop for a physical car.

My contribution

  • Used WebSockets to send control commands and receive updates in real time.
  • Connected an ESP32 and Python backend to an Arduino motor controller using JSON messages.
  • Brought a live camera stream into the browser alongside the controls.
