Abstract — Conventionally, wireless-controlled robots use RF circuits, which have the drawbacks of limited working range, limited frequency range and limited control. Use of a mobile phone for robotic control can overcome these limitations. It provides the advantages of robust control, working range as large as the coverage area of the service provider, no interference with other controllers and up to twelve controls. Alth ough the appearance and capabilities of robots vary vastly, all robots share the features of a mechanical, movable structure under some form of contr ol. The control of robot involves three distinct phase namely perception, processing and action. Generally, the preceptors are sensors mounted on the robot, processing is done by the on-board microcontroller or processor, and the task (action) is performed using motors or with some other actuators.

1. INTRODUCTION
Radio control (often abbreviated to R/C or simply RC) is the use of radio signals to remotely control device. The term is used frequently to refer to the control of model vehicles from a handheld radio transmitter. Industrial, military, and scientific research organizations make use of radio-controlled vehicles as well. A remote control vehicle (RCV) is defined as any mobile device that is controlled by a means that does not restrict its motion with an origin external to the device. This is often a radio control device, cable between control and vehicle, or an infrared controller. A RCV is always controlled by a human and takes no positive action autonomously. One of the key technologies which underpin this field is that of remote vehicle control. It is vital that a vehicle

A lot of animals are on the verge of becoming extinct, including the tiger. The spy robotic car can aid us in this purpose. Since it is a live streaming device and also mobile, it can keep the forest guards constantly updated about the status of different areas which are prone to attack. As a result, it can help to prevent further destruction of the forest resources by enabling correct prohibitory action at the appropriate time. 6 FUTURE SCOPE 6.1 IR Sensors IR sensors can be used to automatically detect & avoid obstacles if the robot goes beyond line of sight. This avoids damage to the vehicle if we are maneuvering it from a distant place. 6.2 Password Protection Project can be modified in order to password protect the robot so that it can be operated only if correct password is entered.
