With the robotics technology penetrating into almost all the industries, one of the latest advancements in them is the remote surveillance. These surveillance robots find its application ranging from search & rescue to bomb detection.
In this course, you will build one such surveillance robot that can be controlled from a remote location and capture live video footages.
In this course, you will learn to build your very own surveillance robot that uses Raspberry Pi as a microcontroller and transmits live video footage over the internet. You will also program the robot to get instructions from a user at a remote location.
