LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3 Telepresence Robot

Published on May 3, 2015

The LEGO EV3 system has really opened up the mobile possibilities as it allows you to control it via Android or iOS smart devices (WIFI or Bluetooth).

Here I use 2 iPads that stream video to each other via the Quickblox.com SDK. The caller also passes down movement controls to the robot to direct it about.

The EV3 is controlled via Bluetooth using direct commands.

The QuickBlox SDK allows you to ramp up the video quality but for this demonstration I felt it was not needed
