HI everone

Am a final year student doing a project on GPS controlled robot.  I want to know if i can use GPS as a medium to control my robot in remote place by sending suitable commands through GPS and also receive the data from my robot to my remote computer through GPS. 

Please do guide me with suitable solutions for this

GPS stands for Global Positioning System and it is just a receiver that receives signal from different satielites and outputs serial data for your computer or microcontroller to use.

To control a robot remotely from a computer you want Bluetooth or Wireless Networking. You will have to research these on Google first.
