Help w/ Wifi Controlled robot

[Tres]

Hi guys,

I'm new here, pls be kind to me ;)
I need help w/ my project guys. A wifi controlled robot. That I can control it from my PC through wifi.
I'm planning to use the wifi module(EZL-80c by Sollae Systems) but I don't know how will I interface this with the servo.

Do I need a UART or microcontroller(like PIC16F84A) will do?
Do you have any suggestion what wifi module should I use?
Also need help how to communicate the wifi module from the robot to my wifi in my PC.

Thank you

It says it has a UART interface so that pic would probably be fine. Youll want to send commands to the pic via this and then have the chip generate your PWM pulses to drive the servo.

If you dont know how to do this I would suggest buing an inexpensive laptop with wifi and then adding a USB servo controller to the PC. Much easier than doing what you are going for but the bot may be a bit bigger.

I'd go with the AVR ATmega8535 (http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?module=Freaks%20Devices&func=displayDev&objectid=64) or ATmega32 http://www.active-robots.co.uk/atmega32-development-board-p-250.html

both easy to write code for and there are plenty of examples/code frags around to do the serial work/set up for you.
