WELCOME

So here it is established, the Concept Car's wiki.

The Concept Car, presented in Figure 1.1, is an experimental embedded system. It is a research platform based on a remote control car and several resources allowing deployment of different classes of applications. The Car is a 1:5 scale radio controlled remote control car that is - depending on the ground conditions - capable of driving at a speed of up to 50 km/h.

This wiki describes the Concept Car, its structure, components, software and hardware architecture and functionalities and presents in a detailed way how to develop and deploy applications for the car.

The corresponding SVN can be accessed this way. This should be a gathering point for all documentation.
