= CYBER-PHYSICAL MARIO KART 2016 =

== Introduction ==

The goal of this project is to create a virtual reality simulation of the popular Nintendo game Mario Kart. This is to be accomplished by having a driver on a physical go-cart within a real-world test track and simulating the game for the user through the use of the Oculus Rift and the Google Tango Tablet. 

== Components ==

1. Key Components
 * Crazy Cart XL
  a. Has a wheel
  b. Has a gas pedal
  c. No brake! - Need to implement brake through sensors
 * Oculus Rift DK2
  a. A head-mounted display with motion tracking relative to external position tracker
  b. Showcases the virtual world in stereoscopic 3D
 * Google Tango Tablet
  a. A tablet created by Google for the purpose of navigating the physical world
  b. Contains multiple camreas and sensors
  c. Capable of motion tracking, area learning, and depth perception
 * 3D Unity Game Engine
  a. A game engine used to create a 3D virtual world
  b. Scripts can be written in C# or Javascript

2. Secondary Components
 * Arduino Microcontroller
 * Ultrasonic and Laser Distance Sensors
 * Miscellaneous Electronic Devices
