i was trying to control my robot using arduino. So i searched and downloaded atleast 10 apps which were showing in the result. one by one i tested them all. And this one stands out.. with great interface, user experience and documentation. i also checked the website. which is again great.

Excellent application, beautiful to the eyes and very versatile since you can choose from basic joystick, to advanced joystick mode for more control and even accelerometer mode. Awesome app

Works like a charm for my mecanum wheels project as it gives precise angle direction and speed. Use the sample script provided in app documentation for best experience.

I tried other apps for controlling my robot but this one i found most useful. it has basic as well as advanced features. Only one problem .. that the data sent for back and stop is same but it can be changed from the setrings. Looking for this improvement in future updates.

About this app

Android App Logic

There are 5 buttons on the screen namely black, red, green, yellow, blue.

Black button is joystick, same like real Joystick controller - Joystick provide 2 values

1. Angle [ 0 - 359 ]
2. Strength [ 0 - 100 ]

Rest of the buttons (red, green, yellow, blue) are normal buttons, by default there values are set to 0. You can changes the values by going to Menu > Setting.
Joystick, red, green, yellow, blue button values will be visible on the left and right of < Sending Data > in real time.

Combination of these all buttons (data) is sent through bluetooth
1. By default seven digit number is set 0000000
2. First three digit represent Angle
3. Second three digit represent Strength
4. Last one digit represent the values of button blue, green, red, yellow

Example: the seven digit number is 2700891, So
1. First three digit represent Angle i.e : 270
2. Second three digit represent Strength i.e : 089
3. Last one digit represent the values of button blue, green, red, yellow i.e : 1

Arduino Sketch (copy paste this code to see the values)


void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
}
void loop() {
if(Serial.available()>0)
{
String value = Serial.readStringUntil('#');
if(value.length()==7)
{
String angle = value.substring(0, 3);
String strength = value.substring(3, 6);
String button = value.substring(6, 8);
Serial.print("angle: ");Serial.print(angle);Serial.print('\t');
Serial.print("strength: ");Serial.print(strength);Serial.print('\t');
Serial.print("button: ");Serial.print(button);Serial.println("");
Serial.flush();
value="";
}
}
}
