I turned a smartphone into a mobile robot. Here’s my latest prototype.
 |
Hi everyone! I've been building a small mobile robot that uses a smartphone as its onboard computer. The phone handles the camera, networking and user interface, while an Arduino controls the motors and peripherals. Current features: š± Smartphone onboard š Browser-based remote control š„ Live video š” LED lighting šØ Experimental security mode š¤ BLE Follow Me (in progress) This video shows one of today's prototype tests. Some things worked, some didn't… and some moments were just funny. š That's real robotics development. The next version will focus on: quieter drivetrain, better cable management, docking station, modular accessories. I'd really appreciate your feedback and ideas for V2. Two smartphones. One drives. One controls. submitted by /u/Independent_Win_Alex |
