Hi Carlos,
I really enjoyed your project and i think i will do the same but i want to add some features. Do you think is it possible to share the xbee communication of your speaker module with a nunchuck? Maybe i will not have enough I/O in the arduino UNO. The nunchuck is for manual control on the robot combined to vocal orders.
We sent you a reply via email. We hope you are enjoying the projects.
hey carlitos i want ur e.mail plz
Glad you enjoyed the project and thanks for the kind words.
we should totally get carlitos to come visit my high-school. The science class would go nuts for that.
Greeting ! Carlos,
The Xbee needs configuration using X-CTU From Digi ? and i am using EasyVR Shield for Arduino.
Ineed how to configure the Xbee ?, and i mount the Xbee shield above the EasyVR Shield. i download the programs but not working.
Advice please.
Regards.
The XBee itself should not need to be configured nor programmed. Ideally you have two identical modules. The shield order is not too important, but if you have the shield version, you need to check that the pins used do not overlap, which is one of the reasons we have not released a new version of the kit.
Hi Coleman, Thanks a lot for your support, and now is working, but i have one problem that the robot not continue in moving such as forward command or backward, may you advice please… (For knowledge:- Using EasyVR Shield we have to change the Tx, & Rx Pins to be 12, & 13 in the software ) Respectively.
With Many Thanks…

Hi carlos you are a lifesaver.
I was exactly looking for a speech controlled robot but I could not find anyone that was explaining it as clear as you have.
I want to do this as my school project but in order to do so I also need I circuit diagram of it to test it on a software.
can you please send via email? thanks in advance
@emmanuel All of the information we have for the project can be found on this page. In terms of a circuit diagram, it uses mostly pre-made parts, so there is not a lot of connections to be made.
Hi, can I use similar concept to build an UAV? I have already purchased an arduino uno and an easyVR shield. May I know what else I need to purchase? And could you share with me the codes? thanks
@Zhuo Yen This post would not go into creating a speech-controlled UAV. You would need a flight controller which accepted serial commands, and create a speech recognition unit which the operator would have on their person to act as the remote control. We are not aware of any production products of this type.
Hi, could you share the codes with me? I am new to easyVR and I wish to have a look at how to code it in arduino. Thank you.
@Zhuo Yen See step #7 for the sample code.
Hi, I am planning to buy the xbee module. But there are U.FL connection, trace antenna, and wire antenna. May I know what are the differences and which type was used for the project?
@Zhuo Yen Trace antenna has a small antenna on the board (nice and slim). Wire antenna uses a small wire as the antenna, and UFL has a connection for an external UFL antenna. If you don’t want to purchase an external antenna, we suggest trace or wire.
Hi, thank you for your reply. I have bought 2 S1 xbee 4212A. My project is almost the same concept as the VRbot, with one xbee on arduino mega transmitting signal to another xbee on another arduino mega. May I know how to configure them so that they can communicate with each other?
@Zhuo Yen We offer a bit of sample code in step 7 above, but what you are doing is really a custom project and we won’t be able to provide much support.
I just resently purchased everything to build one of these robots. I downloaded both Arduino programs for this project from this website, but it seems like the voice recognition module/Arduino are not communicating with the robot. I think the code for the wireless communication is missing. Any thoughts?
