Joystick Car…The students of “N.M.A.M. Institute of technology, Nitte” have done a joystick operated car. In this car all the traditional control elements such as steering wheel, clutch pedal, accelerator pedal and brake pedal are replaced with a mechanical based joystick which performs all the basic functions required to run a car.
They have used a Kinetic Honda (petrol) engine modified to crank up more power. This car has a pay load capacity of 365kg and travels at speed ranging from 25 to 40kms/hr.
This project was started on Feb. 2008 and completed within 3months of time.
Joystick Car is a newly developed concept of controlling a car (automobile) with a fully mechanical based Joystick.
This car has received “The Best Project Award for the year 2008” in Mechanical department during Expro-08 at our college.
