Abstract :
In this work, Android operating system based robot platform and smart phone operated control and monitoring system are introduced. To implement this work, Cortex-A8 series S5PV210 embedded processor and Android operating system are correlated. The robot has an autonomous and manual travel and is controlled by only smart phone. In the Android OS (Operating System), the camera image is compressed to JPEG format and the image file is delivered to a smart phone through 802.11x wireless LAN communication which utilizes TCP/IP communication socket programming. Later, the transferred image data are converted into BMP format, which enables a real time image display.
