Abstracts: Mobile phones today become an essential entity for one and all and so, for any mobile based application there is great reception. In this scenario making a mobile phone operated crane is a good idea. Conventionally, wireless-controlled crane use RF circuits, which have the drawbacks of limited working range, limited frequency range and limited control. Use of a mobile phone for robotic control can overcome these limitations. It provides the advantages of robust control, working range as large as the coverage area of service provider. No fear of interfering with other controllers and we can have as much as 12 controls. Although the appearance and capabilities of crane vary vastly, all robots share the features of a mechanical, movable structure under some form of control. The control of crane involves three distinct phases: perception, processing and action. Generally, the processing is done by the on-board micro controller (ATMEGA8) and the task (action) is performed using motors or with some other actuators.
