You might want to consider looking at the information that John Blankenship shares on the internet, or one of his books, like Robot Programmer's Bonanza.

Ok,

First we need to know, what kind of robot is it and what microcontroller does it use?

As for the video, please explain further what trouble you are having.

We can help you much better if we get some more information.

Ahhh I see what you mean now ;)

You mean sending the camera's picture wirelessly back to the PC.

I've tried this before in VB.NET, and didn't succeed. But I wasn't very good back then. I'm going to try this again right now in fact :)

Well, we will still need to know which camera you are using, and what controller it uses, or does the robot have a computer onboard it?
