... way to control an R/C car using the iPhone and its built-in accelerometer.
It has five buttons, four of them you can use for traditional driving and when you press the last one, it unlocks the accelerometer control in the same way as in many driving games available on AppStore.
Here’s a video showing the iPhone-controlled car in action:

iPhone Controls RC Car

... This developers kit can be then connected to the remote control and you then have a fully functional iPhone RC device.
The idea is brilliant although a lot of equipment and communications is needed. It’s a shame the Wi-Fi on the iPhone cannot be adjusted to communicate with the car direct… but no doubt that wi-fi is not anywhere near the same signal range of RC equipment.

iPhone Hack Gives R/C Car Tilt-to-Turn Goodness [Iphone R/C]
Gizmodo —
... The DIY hack is pretty inventive: the iPhone's Wi-Fi link is used to send data to a PC, where some software sends serial data to an Arduino board which then adjusts the original R/C box for the toy car. Convoluted, but neat: the tilt-to-turn feature being priceless. There're some pretty good guidelines at the project page if you're in the mood for some DIY gadget fun, and I'd just like to point out that the iPhone has 3D accelerometers, which might be fun for aircraft...

... desirability factor by two notches, it also works great as a remote control when hacked properly. It does not rely on standard virtual control buttons to get the RC car moving, but instead uses multi-touch and tilt sensing features of the iPhone to get the job done. This data will be sent to the computer via Wi-Fi from the iPhone, which will then relay the signal to the original RC remote that controls the vehicle. Well, if you have a spare iPhone lying around, why not give this fun weekend project a go? ...
