This paper presents the implementation of wireless arm robot using Programmable System on Chip (PSoC) and virtual Instruments programming using LabVIEW graphical language. The wireless control has been implemented with Zigbee protocol. Some of the main features of Zigbee protocol are to establish wireless communication medium between the arm robot and the PC controller. The hardware system is based on the PSoC microcontroller interfaced wirelessly with LabVIEW via a Zigbee module. The user can

... end the control instructions to the robot from the PC by using the Zigbee Protocol. As soon as the instruction is received by another Zigbee at the receiver end, PSoC microcontroller will come into action and will start the motor drivers so that the Robot starts moving as per the instructions sent by the user/ operator from PC. In addition to the above qualities of the arm robot, its intelligence is further upgraded in this design by making use of a color sensor to identify and handle the required color objects.
