We have added a Wi-Fi Web server to the Rover Project.
Now with a bit of AJAX, we can watch his sensor data as he trundles around:

Interesting project. I’m interested in embedded web servers that can perform I/O operations with other controllers.
The Rabbit Micro-controllers can do all that and are fairly easy to use if you’re comfortable with C code and TCP/IP. We’re using the RCM5600W which has integrated Wi-Fi, TTL serial ports, and ~30 digital I/O depending on how it is configured.
Professional ethics also compel me to mention I work for them as well.

Rover is serving up a web page with a bit of AJAX code to pass dynamic data to the web page wirelessly. In this case I just wanted a status string continually updated in the C code so I could monitor his status as he trundles around.
