Abstract

The challenge is to build a low-cost robot as a basis for personal uses such as mowing or line trimming or moving items from one place to another that is easily configured using a ubiquitous user interface like an android app to autonomously move the robot from one location to another. This paper describes such a robot and user interface for use by non-technical users. A user can record a GPS waypoint and then when directed, the robot will move to that location in a relatively straight line, guided by GPS. In addition, a user can record a pattern while remote controlling the robot with their phone, and then when directed, the robot will replay the same pattern without GPS.
