Description:

It’s basically a demonstration of telemetry using a Lego Mindstorms NXT robot to gather data from the environment and execute primary movement commands.

The user can connect on a certain port to a server via telnet and then communicate with the robot through the server. The communication includes: basic movement commands like walk forward and turn left and also data gathering from environment using sensors: light level, sound, distance to the nearest object. The communication between the robot and server is made via bluetooth.

What i have used:

  • C# and .NET for the server part: sockets and serial port(bluetooth) programming.
  • NXC for Lego NXT robot programming.
