This software will allow you to control the
Roomba Robot:
- From anywhere in the world, through the
Internet!
- From the laptop computer (local application)
Through a local network
No special installation is required. Just
create a folder and save it there. It will even run from your
computer desktop.
The software is comprised of 2
files:
"Maggy Server.exe":
Must run on the host computer, the
one that controls the remote control. There should be no need to
make any adjustments to the default settings.
"Maggy Client.exe":
Runs on the computer that would like to
control the robot remotely or locally. A typical application would be to
have it running on a computer that would like to control the robot
through a network or the Internet. It can also run on the same
laptop that is directly attached to the roomba. Typically, the only
setting that you will need to adjust is the IP (Internet Protocol) address
of the host computer that is runnin "Maggy Server.exe". All
other settings should be able to work at default
values.
Keyboard Commands: Couldn't be
any simpler. Use your arrow keys to control the robot (turn left,
turn right, forward).
Source Code: Source code is
provided for those of you who would like an in-depth understanding of the
software. We would like to hear about any enhancements made (thank
you).
... Source code coming soon ...
