Title: HELP Roborealm Arduino Compatibality?
Post by: wise318 on December 03, 2011, 11:40:27 AM
Hi, i am using arduino microcontroller 328 with integrated Motor controller, My question here is it possible for me to use Roborealm to navigate the robot and create object follower robot, Because so far I have been programming the robot in Arduino software. thanks

Definitely not the expert here, since I haven't used Roborealm, but from what I understand it runs on a PC and communicates through your com port or through USB.  An atmega328 does have UART for serial communication and could be connected to a computer com port or USB for Roborealm control.  Caution though, UART cannot be connected directly to a com port due to different voltage levels.
