The Italian Race is an application for mobile phone vibration races.

It is a toy application, and it all summarize to:
It uses the mobile phone vibration engine and accelerator to move the mobile phone downwards in a slope and produce sound events when a big jump or a big movement (it is relative to the slope) is produced.

The application equips a Q-Learning algorithm that learns the best vibration pattern to move faster on a particular slope, by controlling the vibration engine and receving as reward the medium acceleration produced. During the descent, if the movement is recognized to be particularly quick, the application can produce recorded sounds.

The idea is that, by making the phone vibrate, the static friction is overcome, causing the phone to slide on a slope on which usually it would not move. Thus the user can create circuits, similar to Pitagora Switches or rube goldberg machines.

The video description shows an example of usage.
