Improvement of Transmission Measuring for The Robotic Wireless Control

Abstract

This paper presents the design, testing, and development of mechanical arms controlled by servo motors that are affordable for handling small objects. This system uses the Arduino platform which is connected by an XBEE module in order to communicate wirelessly with the computer and the robotic arm at a frequency of 2.4 GHz. The robotic wireless control is developed to be able to interact with a user that is i.e. called graphical user interface (GUI) using LabViewsoftware. It was found that control arm to grip small objects wirelessly, effectively at near range. However, performance will decrease steadily for far distance communication.
