This is a nice application project that I like to show to my students in order to trigger and give them some more motivation. It is a a project that I developed when I was a Msc student at the University of Siena. An iPhone is used to control the robot. Data coming from the iPhone's accelerometer are send to a server through Open Sound Control serial messages. When the server receives these messages, it applies inverse kinematics and calculates the joint angles' values. Finally, these angles
