This paper describes RISCBOT 3 , a wirelessly enabled autonomous navigational and surveillance robot. The robot can be controlled through the Internet and can be commanded to move to any desired location. The robot navigates using a visual recognition algorithm, also providing a real-time video feedback from the operation site. This paper describes the hardware, software and the wireless interface modules of the RISCBOT. I. INTRODUCTION Autonomous mobile robots are one of the modern marvels of interdisciplinary scientific research and development. They provide a great opportunity of interacting with environments for removed from the user. With the advent of the Internet telerobotics (controlling robotic devices from a distance) has received a major boost.
