Summary

Ever build robots and looking for a neat way to control them? Or have you heard of the Robotic Operating System (ROS) but didn't know where to begin? Then have a look at our new project utilising our popular XC4411 Uno with WIFI board and LCD controller (XC4454).

This tutorial gives you everything you need to set up a ROS environment on your PC and builds a small controller which you can use to control a simulator around on the page. Once you've built it, you can easily transport the controller to control any other ROS robot with a flick of a command. The possibilities are endless.
