Bluetooth Overview, Continued

The Scribbler 2 robot and MyroC follow a standard Bluetooth protocol.

• Each robot (actually the Fluke plugged into the robot) has a Media Access Control (MAC) address, usually given in hexadecimal notation, such as "00:1E:19:01:09:50"
• The robot runs Bluetooth, waiting for a workstation's request to connect
• Once a connection is established
  • The workstation and robot exchange messages
  • Robot's design specifies message format.
  • Library functions in MyroC translate logical robot commands and send messages according to the robot's protocol.
