Design of a robot remote controller for 'Magyarok a Marson' competition

This paper is introducing a “Magyarok a Marson” robot, which is developed at the Institute of Automation and Infocommunication in University of Miskolc. The controller was built for “Magyarok a Marson” student competition. Our goal was to create a controller, which looks like a magic wand and it is able to control remotely a spherical robot. It was the expectation of the competition. My main task was the hardware design of the remote controller. This paper presents the requirements of the competition, the development of the PCB panel and the controller itself.
