Design and control of RoboDroid to do monotonous job using a smartphone only. The robot is named ‘RoboDroid’ as it utilizes concept of both Robotics and Android. It is a mechanical arm with movable base that is controlled by an application through Android Smartphone via Bluetooth using a most commonly used Bluetooth module HC-06 and programmed with Arduino Uno.
