Initial Implementation of Arxterra Android App
By Matthew Clegg – Computer & Control Systems
With the final model of Spiderbot finally up and somewhat running, coding for communication between Spiderbot and the Arxterra control panel, via the Arxterra Android App has gone underway. With help from Tommy Sanchez of Robot Company’s MC3, I have managed to implement the code to enable communication with the control panel.
The following link is a video of basic movements available on the Arxterra control panel as applied to Spiderbot:
Prior to the time of recording, one of Spiderbot’s legs twisted so Spiderbot is placed on top of a toolbox for support, so movement has been shown in slow motion to give a better idea of what the actual Spiderbot movement is.
This link will lead to base instructions that were written to help with connection between the Arxterra Android App and Control Panel:
