Introduction

Building mobile robots is one of the most entertaining things you can do with the Arduino platform. Because the platform is so easy to use, you will be able to create mobile robots in no time, and also control them from the Internet.

In this last chapter of the book, we are going to see how to create your own mobile robot based on Arduino. We'll see how to choose a nice robotic platform, and how to assemble your first mobile robot. Then, we are going to see how to control this robot locally from your web browser, and we'll also mount an ultrasonic distance sensor on the robot so it can detect obstacles. Finally, to end this book about the Internet of Things, we are going to learn how to control this robot from anywhere in the world.
