By the way, my problem was much easier because it was on a track my car essentially had lanes to stay in. Yes, I stuck an iphone on thecar, and used the iphones camera to center the runner's face in the center of the screen using a library called OpenCV. I also used a rangefinder to determine distance from the car, and then you can basically triangulate with dynamics where the car needs to turn. There wasn't really a need to send anything to the car and back because all the logic was done on the car itself, either on the phone, or on the microcontroller that powered the wheels and the rangefinder.
