Wireless Ethernet controlled Linux Robot

Let's Make Robots Robots
1

I built this robot for a friend of mine in exchange for some awesome machine shop work.

It features the following components:

  • Max 96 Round Mobile Robot Platform
  • TS-7250 200 Mhz ARM9 Single Board Computer running Linux
  • Hc11 MC Processor
  • Senscomp Sonar Units
  • Devantech Compass Module
  • Linksys Wireless Broadband Router

The purpose of this robot was the develop navigation routines and when those failed, avoid objects.

 

  • CPU: ARM7
  • Operating system: Linus
  • Power source: 12V 7Ahr Gell Cell
  • Programming language: C/C++
  • Sensors / input devices: Sencomp / Polaroid Sonar Units
  • Target environment: indoor

So… are you building
So… are you building another for LMR, and this one with camera, and an interface to control it - an interface that we can have on the frontpage of LMR?

Egbert2
That is not a bad idea. I am starting on a new project which will have some improvments over Egbert. The only obstacle to allowing web control for everyone is a "play pin" to put it in.

remoted controlled robot play pins

If I put a robot up for control by anyone over the internet. I need an environment for it to roam around in. My office, home and workshop are too cluttered (messy) for the robot to move around.

Here is(was) a internet controlled robot that anyone that logged on could drive it around the office. He is much more organized than me :-).

Here is the link - I don’t think he ever has it up for control anymore, but it was pretty cool when it was.
