The radar view turns the rover into something easy to demonstrate, explain, and remember in a portfolio review.
Radar RC Car
An ESP32 rover with servo scan, ultrasonic ranging, and Bluetooth control presented through a radar-style interface.
How the radar car is positioned.
This project helps the portfolio show hardware, sensing, and interface design in the same story.
Make raw sensor data understandable.
A rover can feel abstract until the feedback is translated into something human-readable. The radar interface helps explain what the car sees, where the scan is moving, and how the control state changes over time.
Use radar language instead of raw values.
The page treats the hardware like a product demo, with cards for telemetry, clear control modes, and a sweep arc that tells the story visually. The result is easier to present than a bare serial log or a block of code.
Clear, memorable, and portfolio-friendly.
The project becomes the kind of build that a reviewer can understand in seconds while still seeing enough detail to appreciate the embedded and UI work behind it.
Implementation highlights
- Servo sweep and ultrasonic ranging translated into a radar visual.
- Control modes for autonomous scanning and manual driving.
- Telemetry cards that keep the interface from feeling technical only.
- Embedded project presentation that reads like a product launch page.
Stack and presentation
- ESP32 and Arduino for the rover control loop.
- Sensor and Bluetooth data surfaced through the portfolio language.
- SVG screenshot assets to keep the repository light.
- Shared site navigation, theme cycling, and resume links.
