At the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show (CES), a modified 1994 Honda Civic demonstrated the use of a PSP as a remote control via WiFi. The car has been modified by Metra Electronics, its original engine was replaced with an electric motor, and the steering wheel was swapped for an analog joystick and a touch panel screen. In total there are 21 TV screens in the car, being fed by 6 DVD players and 2 cameras, the images from which can be routed to any of the screens using the touch panel. The PSP controls can be used to drive the car, allowing for steering, acceleration, brake, operating the lights and indicators, honking the horn and even opening the doors. This setup was developed by Aurora Multimedia, which created the car's control system, including its PSP connectivity. The control of the car was done using a simple Lua script (developed for LuaPlayer v0.15), which was released by the developer in 2006.
