Abstract
Team Robot Cell Inc. developed a working model of a one-way control link between a user control device
(joystick) and a dumb robot (RC car) using two cell phones. The joystick provides the user with proportional control over the speed and steering of the RC car from a remote location. Included in this report are detailed descriptions of the subsystems and integration of this model. The major subsystems described are the control signal generator (transmitter), the filtering system, the speed control circuitry, and the steering control circuitry. The conception, implementation, and integration of the subsystems are explained. The resulting integrated performance of the subsystems and the system as a whole is documented as well.
