Mini Project - Computer controlled Vehicle

Our Mini-Project was a Computer controlled vehicle. The user can control the vehicle using a GUI in the system. The GUI was coded in PyQt and it had PySerial code embedded in it for serial communication. 
At the system side,
  • CP2102 USB - UART Bridge.
  • 433 MHz Transmitter. 
  At the vehicle side,
  • Microcontroller - Atmel Atmega8.
  • L293D motor driver IC.
  • 433 MHz Receiver.
  • 12V Battery.
  • 7805 Voltage regulator IC.
  • DC Motors and other mechanical parts like chassis, wheels, etc.
