A robot can be controlled in many different ways. The wireless control for a robot vehicle can be implemented via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or RF. An RF-based wireless robot has an RF receiver interfaced in its circuit through which control commands can be passed through an RF transmitter. The RF transmitter can be part of a remote control or interfaced to a PC via a controller circuit. The RF transmitter is interfaced to a computer via controller circuit based on Arduino UNO. The computer runs a MATLAB based application which controls the movement of the robot. So the motion of the robot is wirelessly controlled through a MATLAB based GUI. The RF module used in the project is 433MHz RF module. It has a typical range of 50 to 60 meter which can be extended up to 300 meter by using antenna and proper transmission power. For designing this robotic system, a MATLAB GUI is designed on computer and an Arduino sketch which can receive command characters serially from the computer and transmit motor control logic accordingly are designed. The robot itself houses a RF receiver circuit which is capable of implementing DC motor control without the use of any additional controller. The Arduino sketch is written and compiled using Arduino IDE while the GUI is designed within the MATLAB platform.
