Usage

Controlling Robotino with the XBOX 360 Wireless Controller is very easy and fun. Just plug in the USB wireless receiver in one of Robotino's USB ports and this should automatically fire-up a daemon in the background which allows controlling Robotino with the wireless controller. You should be able to move Robotino with the controller. The following images illustrate the controls available on the wireless controller.
