I have a microcontroller based toy car . I interfaced it with PC (RS232 Port) so that when i press arrow keys it will move accordingly. Now i want to give those commands through Internet using IP . How can it be done ?

ok, if you want to use the IP address. Then try RealVNC and VNCviewer.

whats the programming language you have used to control the toy car?

if you want a web interface then I guess ActiveX control is your only choice.

Hi
I founded a solution to do this.
There are three modules
1.An application at client system to access the serial port
2.An application which runs on a server providing an interface between the application and web page controls
3.A web interface which provides a way of interacting with client application


For designing the application to access the serial port at client ,I opted for c#.Net
For developing an application which provides interface between clients , I used the concept of web services
For developing an interactive web interface, I used ASP.Net (Active Server Pages)
