Hi,
I’m Varnit Goswami with username electrronix from Uttarakhand, India. Currently, I am studying at Jaypee Institute of Information Technology in ECE branch. Here is about my college project “Bluetooth Controlled Car” and I made this project in the second year of college.
In this blog, I will show you how to make a Bluetooth-controlled car which can be controlled through your Android smartphone using Bluetooth app. The robot car is fully based on Arduino and I hope to do step by step guide on making this robot in a very easy way. Hope you will enjoy it.
Components required:
- Arduino Nano with cable
- IC L293d or Motor driver board
- Bluetooth module HC-05
- Metal chassis with caster wheel
- 12v DC motor (100 rpm) with tyres
- IC 7805, 7809
- Diode
- 1n4007
- Breadboard
- 12v battery
- Some breadboard and jumper wires
Mobile App: ArduinoRC or Remote XY
Steps:
- Complete the power supply circuit using a diode, IC 7805 and IC 7809 with Arduino nano on a breadboard.
- Connect L293d and Bluetooth module with the Arduino as per circuit diagram.
- Now assemble metal chassis, caster wheel, motors & tyres and place breadboard on it.
- Upload the code into the Arduino.
(Caution: During uploading a code, remove Rx & Tx pins from the Arduino and connect again after the code upload.) - Now connect Bluetooth mobile app with HC-05. And control your car through a smartphone.

This is a really good project for electronics geeks. I must say I had a great time making it and using it!!
