SPYBOTFirst of all this is a mini project done by SHABEER V K,  SHAHBAZ Z,  SHARAFUDHEEN ALTHAF A C, &  SOORAJ KUMAR K N.

Robotics is an interesting field where every engineer can showcase his creative and technical skills. Pleasing aspect of robotics is that a robot can be made indigenously by any one. In this competitive world there is need for every enthusiastic, from amateur to professional, to make a simple robot having innovated applications and with robust control.

Mobile phones today became an essential entity for one and all and so, for any mobile based application there is great reception. Wireless controlled robots utilize RF circuits, which had limitations like limited range, limited frequency ranges and controls. But a mobile phone controlled robot can hold up these limitations. It has a robust control, unlimited range (coverage area of the service provider), no fear of interfering with other controllers and we can have as much as 12 controls.

NOW WHAT IS THIS SPYBOT??

The SPYBOT is a robot that can be controlled from anywhere around the world. Just by using a 3G enabled mobile phone, the user can control the robot from anywhere in the world also can see live video transmission from the robot to the controlling mobile.

Benifits

  • Checking the location area.
  • Moving on to the place.
  • Communicating with other people there.
  • Controlling from anywhere around the world.
  • Easy and fast communication.

SO HOW THIS THING WORKS??

The user in order to control the robot should make a video call to the 3G enabled phone attached in the robot, from any another 3G enabled phone, which can send DTMF tones by pressing the numeric buttons and can view the video output. The cell phone in the robot will be kept in auto answer mode. So, after a ring the cell phone accepts the call and starts video transmission. To prevent unauthorized access, a password is set so that the person who knows the password can only access it. Now for the DTMF tones pressed, the tones are fed to the circuit and the corresponding actions are performed.

Note: For security reasons i am not able provide the complete working or the programming part.

As far as we know, we are the first in India to make this 3G based robotic control.

The idea was generated by my team mate & my best friend SHABEER V K .

The design part was done by myself  SHAHBAZ Z.

Technical part was done by my best friends SHARAFUDHEEN ALTHAF A C & SOORAJ KUMAR K N .

We thank each and every person who helped us in making this project a success.

    Hi! Good job..actually we are also thinking of doing this as part of our project and we just would like to ask if ever you could help us to build one.

    your response would be a very big help to our group.

    Thanks :D
