Building your first autonomous vehicle: Part 3

In our continuing serious on building an autonomous vehicle, in April we will let you robot start talking to the real world!

We will be doing this, by adding a Bluetooth module to you robot and then setup some very basic protocols to control your robot with a Windows Phone and Windows 8 application.

You'll be able to get the Bluetooth device from amazon:

To use this Bluetooth module, you'll need to configure it, to do so, you'll need some sort of USB to Serial Port Connector such as:

Bring your robot and expect a whole lot of fun!
