Computers & Electrical Engineering, 2000

In the recent past, robotic vehicles used for various applications make use of wireless technology in controlling the vehicles. The major drawback of these wireless unmanned robots is that they normally make use of radio frequency (RF) circuits for maneuver and control. Principally RF circuits suffer from a lot of disadvantages such as limited control and limited frequency range i.e. working range. To overcome these challenges associated with RF control, other methods have been implemented which make use of the global system for mobile communication (GSM) network and the dual tone multiple frequency (DTMF) function of a cell phone to control the robotic vehicle. Although this work uses the same principle as the technology of the GSM network. It essentially shows the construction of a circuit using Graphical User Interface (GUI) and GSM modules which send commands to control the movement and direction of the vehicle with the use of a PIC microcontroller. GUI is the main controlling system of the vehicle. The GUI generates five different coded signals with the help of visual basic. These signals are transmitted through the communication (COM) port of the personal computer (PC) to the GSM module interface. These commands are sent as a short messaging services (SMS) to another GSM module interfaced with the microcontroller and they control the robot accordingly. As the vehicle moves about the target area, once any GUI control button is clicked on the PC, an SMS is sent is through the GSM module interfaced with the PC to the GSM module on the remote robotic vehicle to control the direction of the robot.This robotic vehicle was implemented, GUI Commands sent from the remote robot control station were received and the robot moved accordingly.

With the sophistication of life of the human with many embedded technologies use of sensors in all the intelligent systems has become unavoidable. The robot vehicle designed here is wirelessly controlled with the joystick and can find application in the areas where human cannot have access. The first objective of the work is to create the Graphical User Interface (GUI) in PC to interface joy stick with the industrial robot. The robot movement and its position can be controlled easily by a joystick and monitored through application software. Microsoft visual studio is used to develop Graphical User Interface for the application. The Joystick Reference Value is stored in joystick library code and robot control code accesses the joystick reference data and process to send the command to the robot. The interfacing is done through the USB port. The combination of joystick library code and robot control code is used to implement a user friendly robot. The second objective of the system is to provide live video monitoring and temperature and Gas detection in hazardous environment in industries. ZigBee protocol is used as the communication medium between rover robot and PC.

The advanced design and development of robotic technology in producing multi task are increasingly. In this paper presents about designing and developing mobile robot model that can be controlled using Graphical User Interface (GUI) via wireless protocol. This paper focuses on the control mobile robot by using the GUI as navigation control and the user can get a view an image and real time video on visual basic software. To address the problem of sired based control, XBee wireless communication circuit was used in mobile robot through a computer command. The development of this mobile robot consists of a chassis, a graphical user interface (GUI), XBee module, DC gear motor, camera, track wheels and microcontroller type PIC18F4550. Differential driving method using L298 circuit was used to control movement of the robot. In mechanical design, the wheel track has been used instead of conventional wheels to enable the robot to travel through different types of surfaces or rough terrain....

In this paper, a differential robot is designed and controlled by PCI card. This card connected between personal computer and microcontroller. Furthermore PID controller was designed by Asic device and implemented on robot.In this paper, instead of using that massive hardware’s, it designed a single FPGA chip to perform the same motion control of robot wheels. We developed a general purposed motion control of robot using a field programmable gate array (FPGA).In order to obtain independent robots movement, the main PID controller is implemented with a Field Programmable Gate Array. The main PID controller routine was designed to be fairly general purpose and modular form. While it is used to control a DC motor, it could be re-deployed to other situations where some parameter has to be controlled to a set value under varying conditions. The actual control software is located in a single function and its major inputs and output are held in a structure. Although it was designed origina...

Design of a SESLogo Program for Mobile Robot Control , 2015

This paper presents a step by step procedure for writing a control program for SES mobile robots. Detailed explanation of APPLIC 37, a microcontroller usually referred to as heart of the robot which receives data or programs, process it and send it to the robot for execution were given. Also the programming software (SESLOGO) which enables the operation of the APPLIC-37 interface and the robot directly is discussed.
