Roomba, yet another questions topic.
Posted: Sun Oct 02, 2011 11:04 pm
Hi
I've seen a few messages about roomba on the forums, but no definitive yes/no about it being controlled.
I've seen a lot of messages on the web about people attaching Bluetooth or arduino boards to their roomba's. But none of them ever link any kind of control software that's actually needed to control the device.
I'm considering buying a roomba soon™ and I'm thinking about putting a pre-built bluetooth device I've found (part through this forum) a RooTooth on it.
Biggest problem I'm having right now is finding any software this bluetooth device can interface to it or even a document on which commands to send to the roomba.
Does anybody have any knowledge about this?
Not to be a nasty guy , but I'm not looking for a homeseer solution. I'm currently working partly with FHEM and partly with DomotiGa and whether or not the controls for the Roomba are standalone on linux, I don't really mind. As long as I have a way to control it
