Internet Base Robo Controlling



Internet Based robot controlling

iSAFE is the semi-autonomous robot which can control over the internet.During the last few years, the robot population  has increased   dramatically. Robots do indeed  offer considerable advantages if  they are used at the right time, in the right place and for the right task. To fulfill  these conditions, we show how we can use the internet to control a  robot when the client is far away from the home or location. When the user gives the relevant  commands, the robot could move in those directions and    do work  accordingly. Also, the user is able to watch what  the robot is     doing in real  time.

Getting starting with Open Source Project(Mozilla Firefox) Part 1

What's the difference between open source software and other types of software?

Some software has source code that only the person, team, or organization who created it and maintains exclusive control over it can modify. People call this kind of software "proprietary" or "closed source" software. Only the original authors of proprietary software can legally copy, inspect, and alter that software. And in order to use proprietary software, computer users must agree that they will not do anything with the software that the software's authors have not expressly permitted. Microsoft Office and Adobe Photoshop are examples of proprietary software.

Open source software is different. Its authors make its source code available to others who would like to view that code, copy it, learn from it, alter it, or share it. LibreOffice and the Firefox Programs are examples of open source software.

Let's start to form the scratch.

In here we going to start to contribute Mozilla firefox project.So here we go, now we know nothing about firefox so we need to know about Firefox first. Every open source projects have their own mailing list which is used to talk about the project and bugs.First of all, we need to register there,so we can ask them about our issues.Here is the link to the mailing list and we can register there.


After we done with the mailing list now we can move forward, normally when we send a mail it will take a time to get the reply from the people but we can have another option it's IRS.IRC mean 
Internet Relay Chat It is similar to the WhatsApp ,we can see all the members who are in online now and we can send messages public and they will reply us. to use IRC we need to install IRC client it's very easy to follow the link and get one in here we are using Hexchat.
