Abstract
The development of technology today is very rapid with the many robots that are used in everyday life to help human work even robots are used in a military force that aims to assist in operational tasks. Combat robot is a tool of mechanical and electronic combining that is designed to move from one place to another and is equipped with weapons that can shoot enemies. Operators use the Joystick to control the robot and the joystick is programmed using Arduino, sent via the NRF24L01 module as telemetry, which is farther away than the connection that was the problem previously, namely bluetooth. The method used is an experimental method, in this study focused on communication between Joystick with the robot through the NRF24L01 module connection so that the robots motion will be in accordance with the programmed Joystick movement. The results of this study, the robot can be easily controlled using a Joystick and seen in realtime on a Tablet mounted on the Joystick. Then this Joystick control can facilitate the operator in controlling the robot and the distance achieved using the NRF24L01 module is further than using a bluetooth connection.
