Idea with using an Android phone to transmit audio data to an Arduino robot.

Using Arduino Audio
1

Hello Guys ! :slight_smile: I am new to here, and new to Arduino! I am not an expert on electronic, but I wanna try it out!
At first, I apologies to my english, because english not my main language :stuck_out_tongue:

So now here is my idea :

  1. Make a simple Application to simply play different sound when touch some buttons. (I had done this so far)
  2. Tear open a headset, DIY an audio output, plug it into my Android phone, and use a transmitter to transmit the audio data to a receiver (Arduino Robot) in wireless way.
  3. Let the Arduino robot declare out the data meaning, and let the robot do something ! (For now I plan to make it control some motor speed, and make it fly :wink: )

Is this possible? Because I am new to this, I don't know this will be difficult to done or not ! I had google for some time, but I still cannot get a nice answer for this (Maybe I am typing unsuitable keywoard :open_mouth: )

So, what things should i buy first? And what should I do to done this robot? And what programming language should I learn and know?

Thanks in advance :smiley: Hope somebody can solve my questions ! Have a nice day :slight_smile:

Why not use the Bluetooth capability (?) of the Android phone?

Otherwise, what would you do?
If you transmit tones (using an FM 'broadcaster') and have a radio (RX/rcvr) mounted to this "robot", a sketch could be devised to determine (count) those tone frequencies and result an action. You'd have to couple the audio to an input pin and so on. That's reasonable, I suppose.
But, since you have the Android...
