the moment this time I am visiting this web site and reading very
informative articles at this place.

https://create.arduino.cc/projecthub/nfarrier/hot-wheels-car-photogate-bcff00

Measure how fast your Hot Wheels car moves at different points on your track or use it to tell how fast your race was.

One sensor can measure relative speed of one car (assuming a typical length car).

Or two photogates can be used to be more precise, but the distance must be measured by the time seen in the Arduino serial monitor to make the calculations.

Get the speed of toy die-cast cars!

We, kids of all ages, enjoy playing with our fancy cars… We NEED to know how fast they run.
