A client-server teleoperator for the EyeBot micro-robot
Esther García Morata, José María Plaza, Vicente Matellán Olivera, Juan Carlos · 2007
This paper describes a teleoperator system developed for the EyeBot robot under a client-server architecture. The teleoperator is made up of two di#erent programs: a server, running on robot's microprocessor, and a client running on a PC. They talk to each other through a serial connection following an specific protocol. The server gathers sensor information required by the client, sends it and executes movement commands. The client asks for sensor data to the server on behalf of the human operator and sends motion orders. It also shows her a graphical interface, so she can see the values from all robot sensors and she can request di#erent movements to its motors and servomotors.
