Description [menu]
Do you like robotics? And do you like DIY projects? If you do like then welcome to our open non-commercial hobby project "Robot Mitya".
We've made a small home smartphone-headed robot. It uses ROS (Robot Operating System) and has three levels:
1. Arduino sketch to control motors and servos.
2. Android application RoboHead to execute commands and transmit video/audio streams.
3. Android application RoboBoard to display robot's video and control the robot.
