Web control system of mobile platform : part of the “Roboteh” project

Abstract

The final thesis corresponds a development of web control system through which anybody can control the mobile robo-platform by using common device with a web browser and Internet connection. The system gives good mechanisms and tools for easy controlling of the mobile platform such as car and camera control elements, video transmission from camera, GPS navigation and mapping, visualization of environment around the car. The system has handy, flexible and configurable user interface. Itis fast and reliable. The main technologies which were used are JavaScript, JSP, Ajax, JSON, Java Applet, HTML, CSS, Google maps.

The results of the final thesis show the system can be used for normal control of mobile platform from everywhere through Internet. It works very fast with minimum delays about 20-30 milliseconds from user action to car reaction and video delay about 100-200 milliseconds. It is possible to reconfigure the system for any kind of robo-platform, improve it and implement addition functionality or used the same groundwork for realizing similar projects.

This development is a good example of modern web remote controlling system what can be popular in the future. In process of development of the system it was found out main possibilities and limitations, problems and their solutions which can help a lot for development similar projects in the future.
