The BLE multitool for robot control. Your iPhone, iPad, or Mac becomes a gamepad for any robot that speaks Bluetooth Low Energy. You write two lines that map sticks to motors. Direct packets. No cloud. No lag. WHAT YOU GET โ€ข Universal controls โ€” thumbsticks, buttons, D-pad, trims, and triggers โ€ข Use a real controller โ€” plug in or pair a standard gamepad; sticks and buttons drive the same packet as the on-screen pad โ€ข Two-way communication โ€” text or live video back from the robot while you drive โ€ข Direct BLE โ€” tiny packets, no cloud in the middle TWO LINES. OR BLOCKS. BlueMote is not a robot-specific app. Complexity lives on the phone. On the robot you read stick values and drive motors. MicroPython: turn, speed = rcv.controller_state(L_STICK_HOR, L_STICK_VER) drive(speed, turn) A blocks editor works the same way: a BlueMote service block, then map sticks to motors. WORKS WITH Any device that implements Nordic UART. Libraries and examples: https://bluemote.app STREAMING VIDEO Turn on MJPEG and the camera feed sits behind the controls. Drive with the sticks, see what the robot sees. Separate from BLE โ€” the radio stays free for the packets. FREE TO DOWNLOAD. NO ADS. 15 minutes of driving per day for prototypes and code tests. PRO (ONE-TIME UNLOCK) โ€ข Unlimited driving โ€ข Remember a robot name so CONNECT skips the scanner in a crowded room Docs and examples: https://www.antonsmindstorms.com/docs/bluemote/ Site: https://bluemote.app
