The robot is controlled through a webinterface (see picture).

To still be able to check the position of the robot, a Raspberry Pi can be used with a camera and QR codes to see the position and rotation of the robot. The raspberry Pi hosts the webinterface that can be used to control the robot, and see the live stream.
