RobotiMaker

Control your robots from your phone — camera, joystick, sensors, all in one app. RobotIMaker turns your Android phone into a remote control for any DIY robot you've built around a Raspberry Pi bridge. See what your robot sees in real-time, drive it with an on-screen joystick or by tilting the phone, fire actions with a tap, and switch between as many robots as you've got — all from a single, fast, low-latency interface. — FEATURES — • LIVE CAMERA FEED — direct, real-time streaming from your robot to your phone. Sub-second latency on a decent network, no clunky middleman. • MULTIPLE CONTROL MODES — virtual joystick for precise driving, accelerometer tilt to drive by leaning the phone, customisable button grids for actions like horn, lights, or arm. • SLIDERS, GAUGES, TOGGLES — configure servo angles (camera tilt, robotic arm joints, grippers), read sensors, fire GPIO commands. Built-in drivers for servo, PWM, GPIO input/output, I²C, NeoPixel. • PRE-MADE ROBOT TEMPLATES — open the app, pick your robot type (Wheeled Car, Robotic Arm, Drone, Humanoid, IoT Station, Monitoring Station) and the right controls appear instantly. Or design your own layout in the BuildYourRobot web dashboard. • MULTI-ROBOT, MULTI-BRIDGE — group your robots under one account, hop between them in one tap. Each robot gets its own connection, its own interface, its own camera. • REAL-TIME STATUS — neumorphic dark UI with live connection indicators. See instantly whether your robot is online, connecting, or offline. — WHO IT'S FOR — Makers, hobbyists, robotics students, and educators running Raspberry Pi-based projects. You bring the hardware (any Pi, motors, servos, camera). The app pairs with our open BuildYourRobot bridge software to give you a polished phone-side control surface in minutes. — HOW IT WORKS — 1. Sign up at BuildYourRobot.ai and create your robot in the dashboard (or via the app). 2. Flash the BuildYourRobot bridge to your Raspberry Pi (one-line installer). 3. Plug in your motors, servos, camera, sensors. Connect the Pi to Wi-Fi. 4. Open the app, log in, and your robots appear ready to control. The bridge handles all the hardware-specific details. The app stays focused on giving you a clean, fast, ergonomic remote. — PRIVACY & CONNECTIVITY — Video and commands flow directly between your phone and your robot. Our servers only help the two endpoints find each other — they never see your video stream. No data is sold or shared with third parties. — SUPPORTED HARDWARE — • Raspberry Pi (Zero W, 3, 4, 5) running the BuildYourRobot bridge • Standard hobby servos (SG90, MG90S, MG996R) on any GPIO pin • Motor controllers via Pico/Arduino/L298N (configurable) • USB / CSI cameras • I²C sensors (temperature, humidity, IMU) • NeoPixel LED strips • Any GPIO-driven device — OPEN PLATFORM — The bridge software is open. The interface templates are JSON. The hardware is yours. If your robot does something unusual, you can extend the bridge or build a custom widget layout in our web dashboard. The phone app picks up the change automatically. Build something. Control it from your couch. Show your friends. Get started at RobotIMaker.ai.
