Control of Industrial Robot via GSM Networks
Controlling devices is one of the important fields in modern industrial control
systems where robots do dangerous, precise and even boring work The study of embedded systems
has the main role and contribution in making such control convenient, since it acquire measures,
process readings and control of actuators. In this paper, the solution suggested is to realize control
using three modes, as well as approaching the problem without using PC for processing of
measurement and control signals. It aims also to overcome the limitation of the peripherals of AVR
Atmega32 microcontrollers that can control only two servo motors. This limit has been overcome
by utilizing SPI interface ports of microcontrollers. Results obtained are excellent and efficient
performance achieved. However, there are some findings like rounds-up of some values that led to
loose of few fractions in the position of motor due to shift in the instant of sending signal to the
slave micro. A solution has been proposed, which was to send the value in two cycles. Another
issue is how to put together the three modes in one program, which were not possible because of the
blocking statement in the GSM mode
Real-Time Control of Wi-Fi Surveillance Robot
This paper presents the design of a low cost Wi-Fi surveillance robot. The purpose of this surveillance robot is to navigate and deal with multiple-angled monitoring towards the environment with inexpensive hardware and free software cost. The desirable wireless standards used in this design is IEEE 802.11b/g (Wi-Fi) due to its  range up to 152 meters with 54Mbps. Robot will be constructed in four wheels. Two driven wheels are needed to navigate the direction along with two caster wheels
