What is it?

This is an infrared (IR) remote-controlled car that can be activated with a TV remote control. The car circuit comprises an infrared sensor, a 6 V AA battery holder (four 1.5 V AA batteries), a diode, and an L9110 bridge motor driver IC (integrated circuit). The diode is used to reduce the power supply voltage from 6 V to 5.3 V, which is near the 5 V required for the TTL (transistor transistor logic) IR receiver. Also, the motor does not need high voltage. It can move very quickly at a supplied voltage of just 5 V.

Why did you make it?

I made the car to see if it could work.

What makes it special?

The infrared sensor (IR) has a maximum range of about 10 meters. However, this sensor would not work well outside due to sunlight. The IR sensor works well in the dark.
