ABSTRACT:
A computer-implemented vehicle controller (VCON) is positioned in the passenger compartment of a vehicle on a test track. The VCON communicates with a base computer for receiving commands therefrom. In response, the VCON, which includes a servo controller and associated servos that are coupled to the controls of the vehicle, operates the controls of the vehicle to drive the vehicle around the test track.
