Abstract:
The ASURO project is presented, the used hardware devices and software development
tools, methodologies and technologies are described. The aim of the project is to create
algorithms and software modules for controlling Arexx robots. Two robot types are
considered, the ARX-03 ASURO and the AAR-04 ASURINO robot. The AAR-04 robot is the
improved version of ARX-03, with Arduino platform, which makes the development of
software modules much easier. In the framework of the presented project the robots are
extended with special hardware modules (sensors and Bluetooth communication modules).
The project contains an Android mobile application, which provides the user interface for
controlling the robots. The robots are equipped with a WiFi camera, the camera image can
be visualized in real time with the mobile application, together with sensor information. The
robots can be controlled by rotating the mobile device or with virtual buttons on the display.

Abstract:
This paper describes an internet based robotic system which can be used for surveillance
purposes through developing a flexible and user friendly mobile robot controllable from
anywhere using internet servers. An android controlled mobile phone mirrored via internet
server to control the robot using Bluetooth as well as getting live video feed through the
application have been adopted in this control system. The central focus of this work is to
develop a cost efficient and user friendly nature of the surveillance robot. There has been
several development in this field but with the increased use of smartphones, this paper
proposes the most convenient way of having a surveillance robot. User can control the
robot using the video feed from the mobile camera by operating through an app based on
app inventor language. The secured server allows complete access to the android interface
mobile to regulate the robot.
