INTRODUCTION
For the last century, toy cars remained popular toys for children, especially for boys. since
then, they have gone through various design phases, from wooden blocks with wheels to modern
toy cars that depict prominent and valued model cars with opening doors and detailed interiors.
The invention of plastics was a boon to toy producers, enabling them from the 1950s to manufacture
relatively strong, correct-looking toy cars in seconds at very low costs. In the early twenty-first
century, only very young children are willing to accept toy cars that do not look like a specific make
and model. Any three-year-old boy will recognize his grandparents' car, and mothers are constantly
amazed when their very young sons lecture them on the differences between the various cars they
encounter when shopping (Jonasses, 2008).
Remote controls are one of the ubiquitous symbols of our modern technologies. It has
revolutionized the way we used our many technologies in a way that completely changed the way
how we interacted with our electronic devices. Instead of getting some exercise or doing some
movements in our body by walking, standing, and/or other body activity, we can automatically
change a radio station or a TV channel while we remain glued onto our chairs as long as we want
(Chandler, 2020). In line with the toy car, many boys have fallen in love with this
Remote control was first demonstrated by Nikola Tesla employing a miniature boat that
was controlled by radio waves. It had a small metal antenna that receives only one radio wave. Not

2. so long ago, in the 19th century, new models of remote controls arrived with their innovation. Until
in the mid-1950s, the TV remote was introduced by Eugene Polley. Polley’s TV remote may not
perfectly work, it had led this into its modern and Hi-tech remote that is used in everyone’s houses
nowadays.
In spite of being a primary source of control in the home, remotes are taken for granted--
until, of course, one disappears. Like odd socks in the washer or umbrellas in the closet, these
things have a way of slipping into the fourth dimension, causing everyone to go on the dreaded
hunt for the lost clicker. Remotes have evolved the ability to burrow under cushions and conceal
themselves, surviving unfound for years. Those without this ability did not survive, eventually being
crushed or knocked underfoot accidentally (Lucky, 2006).

3. Statement of the Problem
Generally, the researcher aims to eliminate the remote hardware to be replaced by a
mobile app toy car controller.
Specifically,
1. What are the problems encountered radio-controlled toy car in terms of longevity?
2. What solution could be formulated to the existing problem of radio-controlled toy car?
3. How would be the system be designed?
4. How would the proposed system be developed?
5. How would the system be evaluated?
Objective of the study
Generally, the study aims to replace remote control hardware in operating a toy car.
Specially, the study aimed to:
1. Identify the problems in patient’s monitoring and hospital billing transaction through
interviews and surveys.
2. Analyze the most appropriate solution to the problems being identified;
3. Design the system using Agile Methodology.
4. Develop the system using Arduino and Android studio as programming language, and
Firebase as the database.
5. Evaluate the performance of the system with the use of ISO 9126.

4. Scope and Limitation
The study focus on implementation of mobile operated motor toy car. The researcher will
build and design mobile app controller that will enable the user to control the movement of the
toy car. The mobile app will be connected to the toy car via Bluetooth within the rage of 10 meters.
Mobile app controller can manipulate the movement of the toy car, forward, reverse, turn right
and left. Built in sensor in the toy car that will detect nearest solid matter within the sensor range
which will be send to the mobile app to notify the user. The mobile app can be easily installed on
mobile phone.
However, the mobile app controller can only be connected to one device. The mobile app
can be installed on android mobile phones. Control connectivity will not be possible beyond 10
meters in range. Connectivity range will be determined depending on the Bluetooth installed in
the mobile phones. The user will not have vision around the toy car.

5. Theoretical and Conceptual Framework
Figure 1. Theoretical and Conceptual Framework
Figure 1 shows the theoretical and conceptual framework of the study. The framework
tells how will a mobile phone can operate a toy car whereas each images represent each segment
of the whole process of signaling. First image represents the mobile phone which will be used as
the controller hardware for the toy car. The second Image represent the signaling part where a
mobile phone transfers a signal via Bluetooth in order to control the toy car. Lastly, the third image
is the actual toy car which will be designed to receive signal from the mobile phone via Bluetooth.
In other words, in this study, the researcher will build and design the application and the actual
toy car that will satisfy the objectives of the study.

6. Significance of the Study
The study will be beneficial to the following
Children – the children will have more time playing with the toy car comfortable without
complaint about heavy remote control.
Parents – parents will have less cost buying their children a remote control car.
Researchers – the study would serve as an opportunity for the researchers to broaden
their knowledge about their chosen field of study and help on building their careers.
Future Researchers – the study would be a source of materials and basis for researchers
for their own research related to the study.
