The gang over at Surveyor Robotics have introduced SRV-1 Console, an open source Android app for operating robots based on the company’s camera board and firmware. Using the G1’s WiFi capabilities, the operator can access a live video feed from the robot and control the device using the handset’s touchscreen and accelerometer. So far the app’s been demonstrated with several robots, including the SRV-1 Blackfin, the YARB Robotic Blimp, and last but not least, our old friend Forknife. We have all the robots in action via Youtube video after the break.
