Abstract

A remote controller system (10) for use with an electric toy car racing track (40) formed by a series of track sections (41 & 42) connected together to provide lanes (40A & 40B) having co-extending pairs of power supply rails (44) for supplying power to electric toy cars running along respective lanes (40A & 40B). The controller system (10) comprises a transmitter (20) for use by a respective player relative to each lane (40A/40B) and a receiver (30) for electrical connection to the power supply rails (44). The transmitter (20) includes a signal generator (26) for generating a control signal for transmission in a wireless manner. The receiver (30) includes a signal processor (38) for processing the control signal received from the transmitter (20) to determine the characteristic, such as level, duty cycle, frequency or polarity, of the voltage supplied to the respective pair of power supply rails (44) for controlling the movement of the associated toy car. <IMAGE>
