SkyTanX

SkyTanX is a Telepresense robot that uses Python and Skype. Using its skype account, users can call the robot and receive a video/audio feed of the robot's camera. The user can then either type in commands, or use a virtual joystick system (image processing) to control the robot. The entire system is setup-free on the client side to make it easy for any user with Skype to control the robot.
