Android talking with Arduino – over the internet!
I apologize that the videos start with the phrase “hey Jerry”; I was never expecting to release these videos to the public. This is a project I worked on for my brother and his kids.
The purpose of the project was to create a robot that could be driven over the internet. The approach is pretty simple:
- Use arduino hardware to control a platform with motors and wheels.
- Talk to the arduino with an android phone over bluetooth using a bluetooth arduino shield.
- Talk to the android phone on the robot over the internet with a socket connection from a 2nd android phone.
