PDA is a term for any small mobile handheld device that provides computing and information storage and retrieval capabilities for personal or business use, often for keeping schedule calendars and address book information handy. This device is use in video recording, word processing, and Global Positioning System (GPS). Many PDA can access internet, intranet or extranet via Wi-Fi, or Wireless Wide-Area Networks (WWAN). A typical PDA has a touch screen for entering data and a memory card slot for data storage and IrDA, Bluetooth and WIFI for wireless connectivity.

PDA can be use in different application through its wireless connectivity. It can be use in a remote control application. Robots today are controlled by personal computers and laptops but then, it is too much bulky for the user to bring their personal computer just to control their robot. PDAs are small and powerful, leveraging the best technology that can be offered today in the palm of your hand. They make for perfect robotic controllers, as they can be easily expanded through their expansion slots. The culmination of this project will provide you with the know-how to control robotic device through the used of PDA.

The group had developed a “PDA controlled robot” that will use in search and rescue operations. The robot has its robotic arm for getting of samples in a place where chemical substances are health hazards to human being.
