IMPLEMENTATION OF UNMANNED GROUND VEHICLE WITH A SMARTPHONE

In this study, design and implementation of a remote controlled unmanned vehicle with a smartphone was aimed. Connection of the unmanned vehicle and the smartphone was carried out with a Bluetooth module installed in the vehicle. The smartphone was mounted on the unmanned vehicle. An application sending live broadcast from camera of the smartphone to a web server was developed on Android operating system. 3G internet connection of the smartphone was used to send video data. Additionally the unmanned vehicle could be controlled via buttons on the developed web page. It was observed that implemented system worked successfully. It can send the live video display and the controller of the unmanned vehicle successfully direct it via developed web page as well. Because the smartphone connects to the internet via 3G technology of GSM network, the implemented system can successfully works everywhere GSM network is present.
