Supervisor:

Dr. Shuwo Chen

- Aim:

Develop a software platform on Linux for remote control of robots over the Internet.

=> Demonstrate the Library

on a real Robot

=> Explore the feasibility of

using the Internet to	control robots

- Why this Project:

- Interested in the Area

- Provide a simple platform	for further projects

- LAN => Internet

Packets (postal service)

=> Random Time Delay

- Measurement to examine:

- local school network

caused the majority of time delay

- depends on the daytime

and period (school-hours, holiday)

- Modes to Control a Robot:

- Direct Control

- Supervisory Control

(non-time-based):

give target *

* demonstrated on a real Robot

- Basic Structure:

- Conclusions:

- The library is implemented

yet, and an example robot can be controlled

- Documentation (Report) and

GUI has to be completed,

fix disfigurement

- The main challenges for me

were:

- Document my work well,

- Write a logbook

- in English

- I discovered that it is very

helpful to make a plan, because

- Overview
