Android controlled Boe-Bot

Anarki4

Greetings!

Has anyone tried to controll Boe Bot with Android smartphone via Bluetooth?
Is it even possible to do so?
I want to write a program, that will allow you to control the bot, but I'm confused cause my Andoid phone is not able to see the bot with eb500 controller at all. What can cause this problems? eb500 is recognized by the notebook, so module is completely operational.

I believe so, a couple of years ago. I remember posting with the guy about it a bit. He didn't provide a lot of detail as I recall. You'll probably find it if you're patient and go through the pages, it was here in the 'Basic Stamp' forum.

I am documenting my project to control a Propeller Activity Bot over Bluetooth from an Android smart phone here:
Parallax Activity Bot controlled via Android application over Bluetooth.

It may be what you are looking for.

I also posted an Android App link and the BS2 code to use it with the BoE-Bot. You can find that link below.
