Modifications were made to a standard 3pi robot to give it most of the capabilities of the RobotBASIC simulated robot (bumper sensors, IR proximity sensors, line following sensors, a turret mounted ranging sensor, an electronic compass and a beacon detector). Programs can be developed using the simulated robot and then immediately be used to control the real robot over a Bluetooth link - no downloading of software is required. Full details including source code can be found at www.RobotBASIC.com. The link below is to a Training Video for CSTEM that shows how a simple program can be used to manually control both the simulated and the real robot using keystrokes. http://www.youtube.com/user/john30340?feature=watch#p/u/17/ufb538x7yYY
