Joker Racer R/C Server is a small-sized and power-efficient linux server designed for radio control cars. You can drive your R/C cars over the internet with your browser by connecting the store-sold web camera and the standard servo/speed controllers of your R/C car.
We start providing Joker Racer R/C server for those who want to use our service for promotional events. Joker Racer R/C Server enables you to accommodate virtual guests of your real events or to advertise your service/product by giving visitors the unique real-time "driving" experience.
As for the event use, we will provide "Free-For-Event" plan to support public events by giving the opportunity for those who actually can not visit the place. (If you are interested in Free-For-Event plan, please apply from Joker Racer web site.)
Note: iPhone application will be released in 2010.
JokerWorks will ship a limited amount of Joker Racer R/C Servers within this year.
We also make Joker Racer R/C Server publicly available early next year so that you can visit somewhere you actually can not visit by the aid of other user who has this gadget at the right place.
