xyRobotRemote is a Java App which communicates with the Robot Firmware over a serial port. It allows you to shoot pictures with the Gameboy camera and remote-control the robot. It requires Java 6 and could possibly work with Java 7...
The protocol used by the xyRobot Firmware and xyRobotRemote to remote-control the robot is as follows.
| Character Sequence | Action |
|---|---|
| ASCII '?' | Print Firmware Version String |
| 0x80, x | Rotate the camera Up/Down to the position indicated by the next byte, x, (0 to 180) |
| 0x81, x | Same as 0x80, but Left/Right |
| 0x82, r1...r8 | Send picture. Camera Register Settings set with the following 8 bytes. |
| 0x83, d, s, dir | Drive dist cm with speed speed. Direction Forwards if dir = 1, Backwards if dir = 0 |
| 0x84, deg, dir | Rotate deg Degree. Direction Right if dir = 1, ;eft if dir = 0 |
| 0x85, r1...r8 | Send picture with 4bit per Pixel. |
| 0x86 | Returns measured distance. |
| 0x87, r1...r8 | Send picture with 2bit per Pixel. |
| 0x88, r1...r8 | Send picture with 1bit per Pixel. |
New major releases could change this protocol or make additions.
