Abstract

This paper is to establish a bidirectional serial communication between a mobile robot and computer. This communication aims at data interaction in real time between the two so that the PC through a graphical interface can record robot para meters (angle, coordinates, speed, etc) and also through a graphic interface, the robot can also receive commands (command functions) from the PC. To comply with this goal the robot has a microcontroller dsPIC30F4011 as processing, which is responsible for communicating with the PC serially. The data sent from the robot to the PC are visualized through a graphic interface developed in LabWindows/CVI2010. Likewise, data sent from the robot which will be observed by means of LEDs installed on the mobile robot.
