Gesture-Sensing Remote Control Car with LED Lights | Fun Racing Experience for Kids

Handing a child a controller is fun for ten minutes. Letting them drive with their hand is fun for an afternoon. This gesture-sensing remote control car reads movement from a wrist-worn sensor, so tilting forward drives, pulling back reverses and turning the hand steers. The connection between gesture and car is immediate enough that most kids work it out in under a minute.

Underneath the novelty it is a capable little car. LED lights front and rear make it usable in a darkened hallway, the wheels handle carpet as well as hard floors, and stunt modes let it spin, drift and roll over without ending the run. A traditional handheld mode is included too, so two children can take turns without arguing over which control style is better.

The car and controller both charge over USB, and a full charge gives a decent play session. Wipe dust from the wheels and sensors occasionally. It contains small parts and a lithium battery, so it is not suitable for children under three, charging should be supervised by an adult, and it should be driven indoors or on private ground rather than on public roads or pavements. Charge the controller as well as the car, since a flat controller stops play just as effectively as a flat battery and is the one people always forget about.
